Evolution of massive stars at very low metallicity including rotation and binary interactions
We discuss recent models on the evolution of massive stars at very low metallicity including the effects of rotation, magnetic fields and binarity. Very metal poor stars lose very little mass and angular momentum during the main sequence evolution, and rotation plays a dominant role in their evolution. In rapidly rotating massive stars, the rotationally induced mixing time scale can be even sho...
متن کاملMassive star evolution at high metallicity
After a review of the many effects of metallicity on the evolution of rotating and non-rotating stars, we discuss the consequences of a high metallicity on massive star populations and on stellar nucleosynthesis. The most striking effect of high metallicity is to enhance the amount of mass lost by stellar winds. Typically at a metallicity Z = 0.001 only 9% of the total mass returned by non-rota...
متن کاملCNO in Low- and Zero-Metallicity AGB Stars
The oldest stars hide information about the chemical evolution of the early universe. In this contect new models of the AGB stellar evolution phase at very low and zero metallicity are presented. Due to the deficiency or absence of CNO catalytic material hydrogen burning operates at significantly higher temperatures than in stars of higher metallicity. As a result convective mixing plays a very...
متن کاملZero-Metallicity Stars and the Effects of the First Stars on Reionization.
We present stellar structure and atmosphere models of metal-free stars and examine them from a cosmological point of view. Metal-free stars exhibit high effective temperatures and small sizes relative to metal-enriched stars of equal mass. These unique physical characteristics enhance the ionizing photon production by metal-free stars, particularly in the He ii (hnu>/=4 ryd) continuum. The star...
