Chemical properties of long gamma-ray bursts progenitors in cosmological simulations

In this work, we investigate the chemical dependence of the progenitors of long gamma-ray bursts. Using hydrodynamical cosmological simulations consistent with the concordance Λ-CDM model which include star formation, chemical enrichment and supernova feedback in a self-consistent way, and assuming...
