Magnetic fields in the formation of the first stars.--II Results

Athena Stacy, Christopher F. McKee, Aaron T. Lee +2

Beginning with cosmological initial conditions at z=100, we simulate the effects of magnetic fields on the formation of Population III stars and compare our results with the predic…

The Mutual Interaction Between Population III Stars and Self-Annihilating Dark Matter

Athena Stacy, Andreas H. Pawlik, Volker Bromm +1

We use cosmological simulations of high-redshift minihalos to investigate the effect of dark matter annihilation (DMA) on the collapse of primordial gas. We numerically investigate…

The First Stars: A Low-Mass Formation Mode

Athena Stacy, Volker Bromm

We perform numerical simulations of the growth of a Population III stellar system under photodissociating feedback. We start from cosmological initial conditions at z = 100, self-c…

Constraining the Statistics of Population III Binaries

Athena Stacy, Volker Bromm

We perform a cosmological simulation in order to model the growth and evolution of Population III (Pop III) stellar systems in a range of host minihalo environments. A Pop III mult…

Rotation and Internal Structure of Population III Protostars

A. Stacy, T. H. Greif, R. S. Klessen +2

We analyze the cosmological simulations performed in the recent work of Greif et al. (2012), which followed the early growth and merger history of Pop III stars while resolving sca…

Probing Pre-galactic Metal Enrichment with High-Redshift Gamma-Ray Bursts

F. Y. Wang, Volker Bromm, Thomas H. Greif +4

We explore high-redshift gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) as promising tools to probe pre-galactic metal enrichment. We utilize the bright afterglow of a Pop III GRB exploding in a primordi…
