On the Initial Mass Function of Population III Stars [PDF]
, 2001 The collapse and fragmentation of filamentary primordial gas clouds are explored using 1D and 2D hydrodynamical simulations coupled with the nonequilibrium processes of H2 formation.

The Initial Mass Function of Low-Mass Stars and Brown Dwarfs in Taurus
, 2000 By combining deep optical imaging and infrared spectroscopy with data from the Two-Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) and from previous studies (e.g., Briceno et al.), I have measured the Initial Mass Function (IMF) for a reddening-limited sample in four ...

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 We use recent microlensing observations toward the central bulge of the Galaxy to probe the overall stellar plus brown dwarf initial mass function (IMF) in these regions well within the brown dwarf domain. We find that the IMF is consistent with the same

The Initial Mass Function and Other Stellar Properties Across the Core of the Hydra I Cluster
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The Hydra I cluster offers an excellent opportunity to study and compare the relic old stellar populations in the core of its two brightest galaxies. In addition, the differing kinematics of the two galaxies allows a test of the local validity of general

Constraining the low-mass end of the initial mass function with gravitational lensing [PDF]
, 2010 The low-mass end of the stellar Initial Mass Function (IMF) is constrained by focusing on the baryon-dominated central regions of strong lensing galaxies. We study in this letter the Einstein Cross (Q2237+0305), a z=0.04 barred galaxy whose bulge acts as

The Formation of Low-Mass Cluster Galaxies and the Universal Initial Galaxy Mass Function [PDF]
, 2002 Clusters of galaxies have an observed over-density of low-luminosity systems in comparison to the field, although it is not yet agreed whether this effect is the result of initial galaxy mass functions that vary with environment or galaxy evolutionary ...

Variation of the High-mass Slope of the Stellar Initial Mass Function: Theory Meets Observations
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present observational evidence of a correlation between the high-mass slope of the stellar initial mass function (IMF) in young star clusters and their stellar surface density, σ _* .

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Low-mass stars and substellar objects are essential in tracing the initial mass function (IMF). We study the nearby young σ Orionis cluster ( d ∼ 408 pc, age ∼ 1.8 Myr) using deep near-infrared (NIR) photometric data in the J , W , and H bands from ...
