Signatures of AGN-induced Metal Loss in the Stellar Population

One way the active galactic nuclei (AGN) are expected to influence the evolution of their host galaxies is by removing metal content via outflows. In this article we present results that show that AGN can have an effect on the chemical enrichment of their host galaxies using the fossil record techni...

In this article we present results that show that AGN can have an effect on the chemical enrichment of their host galaxies using the fossil record technique on CALIFA galaxies. We classified the chemical enrichment histories of all galaxies in our sample regarding whether they show a drop in the value of their metallicity. We find that galaxies currently hosting an AGN are more likely to show this drop in their metal content compared to the quiescent sample. Once we separate the sample by their star-forming status we find that star-forming galaxies are less likely to have a drop in metallicity but have deeper decreases when these appear. This behavior could be evidence for the influence of either pristine gas inflows or galactic outflows triggered by starbursts, both of which can produce a drop in metallicity.We are grateful for the support of a CONACYT grant CB285080 and FC-2016-01-1916, and funding from the PAPIITDGAPA-IN100519, PAPIIT-DGAPA-IN103820, PAPIITDGAPA-IG100622, PAPIIT-DGAPA-IN112620, and PAPIIT-DGAPA-IA100420 (UNAM) projects.
