Zn and Cr Abundances in Damped Lyman Alpha Systems from the CORALS Survey

Abstract: Abstract.We have recently completed the measurement of the abundances of the elements Zn and Cr in a small, but complete, sample of damped Lyman alpha systems selected irrespectively of their dust content (the CORALS radio sample). We find that at a mean redshift z = 2.4 their metallicity and degree of dust depletion are statistically indistinguishable from those of larger samples of DLAs assembled from optical surveys. Thus we conclude that reasons other than a dust-induced bias must be found to explain the l… Show more
