We derive the oxygen abundance (O/H), the nitrogen-to-oxygen (N/O) abundance ratio, and their corresponding radial gradients for a sample of 1431 galaxies from MaNGA DR15 survey using two different realizations of the strong line method: empirical R calibration and the Bayesian model-based {sc HII-CHI-mistry} ({sc HCm}) code. We find that both abundance calculation methods reveal a correlation between the O/H gradient and the stellar mass of a galaxy. This relation is non-linear, with the steepest average gradients in the intermediate mass range and flatter average gradients for high- and low-mass galaxies. The relation between the N/O gradient and the stellar mass is, on average, non-linear with the steepest gradients in the intermediate mass range ($log(M/M_sun) sim 10$), flatter gradients for high-mass galaxies, and the flattest gradients for low-mass galaxies. However, the general trend of steepening N/O gradient for higher masses, reported in previous studies, remains evident. We find a dependence between the O/H and N/O gradients and the galaxy mean stellar age traced by the $D$(4000) index. For galaxies of lower masses, both gradients are, generally, steeper for intermediate values of $D$(4000) and flatter for low and high values of $D$(4000). Only the most massive galaxies do not show this correlation. We interpret this behaviour as an evolution of the metallicity gradients with the age of stellar population. Though the galaxies with a positive slope of the $D$(4000) radial gradient tend to have a flatter O/H and N/O gradients, as compared to those with a negative $D$(4000) gradient.
We present a study on the stellar age and metallicity distributions for 1105 galaxies using the STARLIGHT software on MaNGA integral field spectra. We derive age and metallicity gradients by fitting straight lines to the radial profiles, and explore
We study the gas phase metallicity (O/H) and nitrogen abundance gradients traced by star forming regions in a representative sample of 550 nearby galaxies in the stellar mass range $rm 10^9-10^{11.5} M_odot$ with resolved spectroscopic data from the
We examine how the cosmic environment affects the chemical evolution of galaxies in the Universe by comparing the N/O ratio of dwarf galaxies in voids with dwarf galaxies in more dense regions. Ratios of the forbidden [O III] and [S II] transitions p
We use the EAGLE simulations to study the oxygen abundance gradients of gas discs in galaxies within the stellar mass range [10^9.5, 10^10.8]Mo at z=0. The estimated median oxygen gradient is -0.011 (0.002) dex kpc^-1, which is shallower than observe
Bars in galaxies are thought to stimulate both inflow of material and radial mixing along them. Observational evidence for this mixing has been inconclusive so far however, limiting the evaluation of the impact of bars on galaxy evolution. We now use
