The long-term effects of gas removal from hydrodynamic simulations of star formation

Aleksandra Calovic, Katerina S. Klos, Robert B. Hudson +2

The removal of gas left over from star formation has long been thought to dominate the dynamical evolution, and dissolution of star-forming regions. Feedback from massive stars fro…

Lithium evolution in the Galactic thin disc from Main-Sequence and early Red-Giant-Branch stars

C. T. Nguyen, G. Cescutti, F. Matteucci +7

The role of novae as producers of galactic lithium has been suggested since the 1970s, and it has been reconsidered recently with the detection of Be in their outbursts. At the…

Disentangling Milky Way halo populations at low metallicities using [Al/Fe]

H. Ernandes, Á. Skúladóttir, S. Feltzing +1

Differentiating between in-situ and accreted populations in the Milky Way halo is a challenging task. Various kinematic spaces are often used to identify distinct accreted populati…

Ultraviolet photon production rates of the first stars: Impact on the He II 1640 Å emission line from primordial star clusters and the 21-cm signal from cosmic dawn

Joel Wasserman, Erik Zackrisson, Jiten Dhandha +3

The first stars, the chemically pristine Population III, likely played an important role in heating the intergalactic medium during the epoch of cosmic dawn. The very high effectiv…
