The First Galaxies and the Effect of Heterogeneous Enrichment from Primordial Stars
Azton I. Wells, Michael L. Norman
We incorporate new scale-intelligent models of metal-enriched star formation (\starss) with surrogate models of primordial stellar feedback (\starnet) into the astrophysics simulat…

Predicting Localized Primordial Star Formation with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks
Azton I. Wells, Michael L. Norman
We investigate applying 3D deep convolutional neural networks as fast surrogate models of the formation and feedback effects of primordial stars in hydrodynamic cosmological simula…

External Enrichment of Minihalos by the First Supernovae
William Hicks, Azton Wells, Michael L. Norman +3
Recent high-resolution simulations of early structure formation have shown that externally enriched halos may form some of the first metal enriched stars. This study utilizes a 1 c…
