Effects of dark matter annihilation on the first stars
F. Iocco, A. Bressan, E. Ripamonti +3
We study the evolution of the first stars in the universe (Population III) from the early pre-Main Sequence until the end of helium burning in the presence of WIMP dark matter anni…
Primordial Nucleosynthesis: from precision cosmology to fundamental physics
F. Iocco, G. Mangano, G. Miele +2
We present an up-to-date review of Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN). We discuss the main improvements which have been achieved in the past two decades on the overall theoretical fram…
Dark matter annihilation effects on the first stars
F. Iocco, A. Bressan, E. Ripamonti +3
We study the effects of WIMP dark matter (DM) on the collapse and evolution of the first stars in the Universe. Using a stellar evolution code, we follow the pre-Main Sequence (MS)…
Evolution of the First Stars with Dark Matter Burning
Sung-Chul Yoon, Fabio Iocco, Shizuka Akiyama
Recent theoretical studies have revealed the possibly important role of the capture and annihilation process of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) for the first stars. Us…
Dark Matter capture and annihilation on the First Stars: preliminary estimates
Fabio Iocco
Assuming that Dark Matter is dominated by WIMPs, it accretes by gravitational attraction and scattering over baryonic material and annihilates inside celestial objects, giving rise…
