... Chapter 15. 15.0 Introduction Modeling of Data Given a set of observations, one often wants to condense and summarize the data by fitting it to a "model" that depends on adjustable parameters. Sometimes the model is simply a convenient class of functions, such as polynomials or Gaussians, and the fit supplies the appropriate coefficients. ... The parameters of the model are then adjusted to achieve a minimum in the merit function, yielding best-fit parameters. ... Data are generally not exact. ...

... We address a question if globular clusters (GC) in a protogalaxy could for some time evolve chemically as isolated systems, enriching themselves with heavy elements produced in first supernova events that follow initial star formation. We determine both the critical mass of a protoglobular cluster that is needed to retain the ejecta of the very first supernova, and the critical energy (i.e., number of supernovae) that is needed to expel the residual gas from a cluster of a given mass. ...
