Abstract -- Abundances of heavy elements decreases with increasing galactocentric distance almost in all disk galaxies. ... To explain this gradient in young objects and in the interstellar gas one has to assume that a typical disk galaxy is an open system, i.e. it expels some synthesized heavy elements into the circumgalactic space and/or accretes intergalactic gas with zero metallicity, with rates of both processes depending on the galactocentric distance. ...
