| dc.description.abstract | The dependence of [Fe/H] on galactocentric distance, distance from the galactic mid-plane
and age is studied. Both ordinary least-squares and non-parametric regression in the form of a
‘generalized additive model’ are used. The radial metallicity slope is found to be shallower than
previously claimed in the literature, and there is a significant abundance gradient perpendicular
to the galactic plane. There may be a tendency for metallicity to increase with cluster age. | en_US |
