Quantifying Bursty Star Formation in Dwarf Galaxies
Dwarf galaxy star formation histories are theoretically expected to be bursty, potentially leaving distinct imprints on their chemical evolution. We propose that episodic starbursts with quiescent periods longer than ~100 Myr should lead to discontinuous tracks in a dwarf galaxy's [$\alpha$/Fe]...
