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…
Fragmentation of star-forming clouds enriched with the first dust
Raffaella Schneider, Kazuyuki Omukai, Akio Inoue +1
The thermal and fragmentation properties of star-forming clouds have important consequences on the corresponding characteristic stellar mass. The initial composition of the gas wit…
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…
