Abstract

I present results from a recent work studying galactic chemical evolution with yields from rotating massive stars; they include, for the first time, the combined effect of metallicity, mass loss and rotation for a large grid of stellar masses and for all stages of stellar evolution. The yields of massive stars are weighted by a metallicity dependent function of the rotational velocities, constrained by observations.
