The Formation of the First Stars. I. The Primordial Star Forming Cloud

Abstract

To constrain the nature of the very first stars, we investigate the collapse and fragmentation of primordial, metal-free gas clouds. We explore the physics of primordial star formation by means of three-dimensional simulations of the dark matter and gas components, using smoothed particle hydrodynamics, under a wide range of initial conditions, including the initial spin, the total mass of the halo, the redshift of virialization, the power spectrum of the DM fluctuations, the presence of HD cooling, and the number of particles employed in the simulation. We find characteristic values for the temperature, T ~ a few 100 K, and the density, n ~ 10^3-10^4 cm^-3, characterising the gas at the end of the initial free-fall phase. These values are rather insensitive to the initial conditions. The corresponding Jeans mass is M_J ~ 10^3 M_sun. The existence of these characteristic values has a robust explanation in the microphysics of H2 cooling, connected to the minimum temperature that can be reached with the H2 coolant, and to the critical density at which the transition takes place betweeb levels being populated according to NLTE, and according to LTE. In all cases, the gas dissipatively settles into an irregular, central configuration which has a filamentary and knotty appearance. The fluid regions with the highest densities are the first to undergo runaway collapse due to gravitational instability, and to form clumps with initial masses ~ 10^3 M_sun, close to the characteristic Jeans scale. These results suggest that the first stars might have been quite massive, possibly even very massive with M_star > 100 M_sun.
