Modelling population III stars for seminumerical simulations [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021
ABSTRACT Theoretically modelling the 21-cm signals caused by Population III stars (Pop III stars) is the key to extracting fruitful information on Pop III stars from current and forthcoming 21-cm observations. In this work, we develop a new module of Pop III stars in which the escape fractions of ionizing photons and Lyman–Werner (LW ...

Evolution of Massive Population III Stars

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014
While the evolution of massive stars in the local Universe is dominated by mass-loss, the evolution of massive Population III stars should be dominated by rotation.

The most massive Population III stars

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023
ABSTRACT Recent data from the JWST suggest that there are realistic prospects for detecting the earliest generation of stars at redshift ∼20. These metal-poor, gaseous Population III (Pop III) stars are likely in the mass range $10\!-\!10^3\, {\rm M}_{\odot }$ .

A needle in a haystack? Catching Population III stars in the epoch of reionization: I. Population III star-forming environments

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023
ABSTRACT Despite extensive search efforts, direct observations of the first [Population III (Pop III)] stars have not yet succeeded. Theoretical studies have suggested that late Pop III star formation is still possible in pristine clouds of high-mass galaxies, co-existing with Pop II stars, down to the epoch of reionization.

Extremely Metal-Poor Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Little is known about the first stars, but hints on this stellar population can be derived from the peculiar chemical composition of the most metal-poor objects in the Milky Way and in resolved stellar populations of nearby galaxies.

The search for Population III stars [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008
AbstractPopulation III stars, the first generation of stars formed from primordial Big Bang material with a top–heavy IMF, should contribute substantially to the Universe reionization and they are crucial for understanding the early metal enrichment of galaxies.

The evolution of supermassive Population III stars [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017
Supermassive primordial stars forming in atomically-cooled halos at $z \sim15-20$ are currently thought to be the progenitors of the earliest quasars in the Universe. In this picture, the star evolves under accretion rates of $0.1 - 1$ $M_\odot$ yr$^{-1}$ until the general relativistic instability triggers its collapse to a black hole at masses of ...

Merger Conditions of Population III Protostar Binaries

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Massive close binary stars with extremely small separations have been observed, and they are possible progenitors of gravitational-wave sources. The evolution of massive binaries in the protostellar accretion stage is key to understanding their formation
