The mass spectrum of metal-free Stars resulting from photodissociation feedback: A scenario for the formation of low-mass population III stars
K. Omukai, Y. Yoshii
The initial mass function (IMF) of metal-free stars that form in the initial starburst of massive (virial temperatures >10^4K) metal-free protogalaxies is studied. In particular, w…

Observing H2 Emission in Forming Galaxies
K. Omukai, T. Kitayama
We study the H2 cooling emission of forming galaxies, and discuss their observability using the future infrared facility SAFIR. Forming galaxies with mass >10^11 Msun emit most of…

Formation of the First Stars by Accretion
K. Omukai, F. Palla
The process of star formation from metal-free gas is investigated by following the evolution of accreting protostars with emphasis on the properties of massive objects. The main ai…
