Constraints on the IMF of the first stars
R. Schneider, R. Salvaterra, A. Ferrara +1
Motivated by theoretical predictions that first stars were predominantly very massive, we investigate the physics of the transition from an early epoch dominated by massive Pop III…
Detecting Primordial Stars
Evan Scannapieco, Andrea Ferrara, Alexander Heger +3
We study the detectability of primordial metal-free stars. Cosmological enrichment is a local process that takes place over an extended redshift range. While the duration of this t…
Thermal and Fragmentation Properties of Star-forming Clouds in Low-metallicity Environments
K. Omukai, T. Tsuribe, R. Schneider +1
The thermal and chemical evolution of star-forming clouds is studied for different gas metallicities, Z, using the model of Omukai (2000), updated to include deuterium chemistry an…
