first stars
The interstellar medium of low-metallicity systems undergoing star formation will show chemical abundance in-homogeneities due to supernova events enriching the medium on a local scale. If the star formation timescale is shorter than the timescale of mixing of the interstellar matter, the inhomo-geneities are reflected in the surface abundances of low-mass stars and thereby detailed information...
متن کاملSession II First Stars
How and when did the first generation of stars form at the end of the cosmic dark ages? Quite generically, within variants of the cold dark matter model of cosmological structure formation, the first sources of light are expected to form in ∼ 10M dark matter potential wells at redshifts z 20. I discuss the physical processes that govern the formation of the first stars. These so-called Populati...
متن کاملThe First Stars
■ Abstract We review recent theoretical results on the formation of the first stars in the universe, and emphasize related open questions. In particular, we discuss the initial conditions for Population III star formation, as given by variants of the cold dark matter cosmology. Numerical simulations have investigated the collapse and the fragmentation of metal-free gas, showing that the first s...
متن کاملEvolutionary models for solar metallicity low-mass stars: mass-magnitude relationships and color-magnitude diagrams
We present evolutionary models for low mass stars from 0.075 to 1 M⊙ for solar-type metallicities [M/H]= 0 and -0.5. The calculations include the most recent interior physics and the latest generation of nongrey atmosphere models. We provide mass-age-colormagnitude relationships for both metallicities. The massMV and mass-MK relations are in excellent agreement with the empirical relations deri...
متن کاملMid - IR period - magnitude relations for AGB stars
Asymptotic Giant Branch variables are found to obey period-luminosity relations in the mid-IR similar to those seen atKS (2.14μm), even at 24μm where emission from circumstellar dust is expected to be dominant. Their loci in the M , logP diagrams are essentially the same for the LMC and for NGC6522 in spite of different ages and metallicities. There is no systematic trend of slope with waveleng...
