Fig. 2
Star formation rate as a function of time predicted by the two-infall model (red dashed) and by the two-infall + outflow model (blue solid). The oscillating behavior during both the halo and the last disk phases is an effect of the gas density threshold for star formation (see Chiappini et al. 1997).
