The luminosity–metallicity relation in the local Universe from the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey
/ Authors
/ Abstract
We investigate the Luminosity ‐ Metallicity (L Z) relation in the local universe (0 0.3) galaxies. Oxygen-to-hydrogen (O/H) abundance ratios are estimated using the ”strong-line” method, which relates the strength of following bright emission lines [O II] �3727, [O III] �5007, and H� (parametersR23 andO32)
