Query: Characterizing the radial oxygen abundance distribution in disk galaxies   We examine the possible dependence of the radial oxygen abundance
distribution on non-axisymmetrical structures (bar/spirals) and other
macroscopic parameters such as the mass, the optical radius R25, the color g-r,
and the surface brightness of the galaxy. A sample of disk galaxies from the
CALIFA DR3 is considered. We adopted the Fourier amplitude A2 of the surface
brightness as a quantitative characteristic of the strength of non-axisymmetric
structures in a galactic disk, in addition to the commonly used morphologic
division for A, AB, and B types based on the Hubble classification. To
distinguish changes in local oxygen abundance caused by the non-axisymmetrical
structures, the multiparametric mass--metallicity relation was constructed as a
function of parameters such as the bar/spiral pattern strength, the disk size,
color index g-r in the SDSS bands, and central surface brightness of the disk.
The gas-phase oxygen abundance gradient is determined by using the R
calibration. We find that there is no significant impact of the
non-axisymmetric structures such as a bar and/or spiral patterns on the local
oxygen abundance and radial oxygen abundance gradient of disk galaxies.
Galaxies with higher mass, however, exhibit flatter oxygen abundance gradients
in units of dex/kpc, but this effect is significantly less prominent for the
oxygen abundance gradients in units of dex/R25 and almost disappears when the
inner parts are avoided. We show that the oxygen abundance in the central part
of the galaxy depends neither on the optical radius R25 nor on the color g-r or
the surface brightness of the galaxy. Instead, outside the central part of the
galaxy, the oxygen abundance increases with g-r value and central surface
brightness of the disk.
