Abstract

AbstractThe long GRB 050730 observed at redshiftz~ 4 allowed the determination of the elemental abundances for a set of different chemical elements. We use detailed chemical evolution models taking into account also dust production to constrain the star formation history of the host galaxy of this long GRB. For the host galaxy of GRB 050730, we derive also some dust-related quantities and the specific star formation rate, namely the star formation rate per unit stellar mass. Finally, we compare the properties of the GRB host galaxy with those of Quasar Damped Lyman Alpha absorbers.
