Abstract | We present a modified version of the L-GALAXIES 2020 semi-analytic model of galaxy evolution, which includes significantly increased direct metal enrichment of the circumgalactic medium (CGM) by supernovae (SNe). These more metal-rich outflows do not require increased mass-loading factors, in contrast to some other galaxy evolution models. This modified L-GALAXIES 2020 model is able to simultaneously reproduce the gas-phasemetallicity (Z(g)) and stellarmetallicity (Z(*)) radial profiles observed in nearby disc galaxies by MaNGA and MUSE, as well as the observed mass - metallicity relations for gas and stars at z = 0 and their evolution back to z similar to 2-3. A direct CGM enrichment fraction of similar to 90 per cent for SNe-II is preferred. We find that massive disc galaxies have slightly flatter Z(g) profiles than their lower-mass counterparts in L-GALAXIES 2020, due to more efficient enrichment of their outskirts via inside-out growth and metal-rich accretion. Such a weak, positive correlation between stellar mass and Z(g) profile slope is also seen in our MaNGA-DR15 sample of 571 star-forming disc galaxies, although below log(10)(M-*/M-circle dot) similar to 10.0 this observational result is strongly dependent on the metallicity diagnostic and morphological selection chosen. In addition, a lowered maximum SN-II progenitor mass of 25M(circle dot), reflecting recent theoretical and observational estimates, can also provide a good match to observed Z(g) and Z(*) profiles at z = 0 in L-GALAXIES 2020. However, this model version fails to reproduce an evolution in Z(g) at fixed mass over cosmic time, or the magnesium abundances observed in the intracluster medium (ICM). |
