Disk fragmentation and the formation of population III stars
M. A. Latif, D. R. G. Schleicher
Our understanding of population III star formation is still in its infancy. They are formed in dark matter minihalos of at . Recent high resoluti…
The formation of supermassive black holes in rapidly rotating disks
M. A. Latif, D. R. G. Schleicher
Massive primordial halos exposed to moderate UV backgrounds are the potential birthplaces of supermassive black holes. In such a halo, an initially isothermal collapse will occur,…
How realistic UV spectra and X-rays suppress the abundance of direct collapse black holes
M. A. Latif, S. Bovino, T. Grassi +2
Observations of high redshift quasars at indicate that they harbor supermassive black holes (SMBHs) of a billion solar masses. The direct collapse scenario has emerged as the…
Effects of turbulence and rotation on protostar formation as a precursor to seed black holes
C. Van Borm, S. Bovino, M. A. Latif +3
Context. The seeds of the first supermassive black holes may have resulted from the direct collapse of hot primordial gas in K haloes, forming a supermassive or quas…
Formation of carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars in the presence of far ultraviolet radiation
S. Bovino, T. Grassi, D. R. G. Schleicher +1
Recent discoveries of carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars like SMSS J031300.36-670839.3 provide increasing observational insights into the formation conditions of the first second-gen…
A UV flux constraint on the formation of direct collapse black holes
M. A. Latif, S. Bovino, C. Van Borm +3
The ability of metal free gas to cool by molecular hydrogen in primordial halos is strongly associated with the strength of ultraviolet (UV) flux produced by the stellar population…
