Resumen:
In the Local Universe, there is a well-known correlation between stellar mass and chemical enrichment of galaxies in the sense that more massive and brighter systems exhibit higher metallicities (e.g. Tremonti et al. 2004; Lee et al. 2006). Recent results indicate that this correlation is also in place at higher redshifts (e.g. Erb et al. 2006; Maiolino et al. 2008). In this talk, we present preliminary studies on the evolution of the mass-metallicity relation at z>1 in cosmological simulations.
