Formation of metal-free binaries: Impact of H line cooling and CIE cooling
Rafeel Riaz, Dominik R. G. Schleicher, Stefano Bovino +2
During primordial star formation, the main cooling channel is provided by H and super-molecules, such as H or H, at sufficiently high densities. When the latter f…
Stellar Initial Mass Function over a range of redshifts
Rafeel Riaz, Dominik R. G. Schleicher, Siegfried Vanaverbeke +1
The stellar Initial Mass Function (IMF) seems to be close to universal in the local star-forming regions. However, this quantity of a newborn stellar population responds differentl…
Do fragmentation and accretion affect the stellar Initial Mass Function?
R. Riaz, D. R. G. Schleicher, S. Vanaverbeke +1
While the stellar Initial Mass Function (IMF) appears to be close to universal within the Milky Way galaxy, it is strongly suspected to be different in the primordial Universe, whe…
A survey for variable young stars with small telescopes: II -- Mapping a protoplanetary disk with stable structures at 0.15 AU
Jack J. Evitts, Dirk Froebrich, Aleks Scholz +57
The HOYS citizen science project conducts long term, multifilter, high cadence monitoring of large YSO samples with a wide variety of professional and amateur telescopes. We presen…
The formation of protostellar binaries in primordial minihalos
Rafeel Riaz, Stefano Bovino, Siegfried Vanaverbeke +1
The first stars are known to form in primordial gas, either in minihalos with about ~M or so-called atomic cooling halos of about ~M. Simulations have s…
