First Stars . I . Evolution without mass loss
The first generation of stars was formed from primordial gas. Numerical simulations suggest that the first stars were predominantly very massive, with typical masses M ≥ 100M⊙. These stars were responsible for the reionization of the universe, the initial enrichment of the intergalactic medium with heavy elements, and other cosmological consequences. In this work, we study the structure of Zero...
متن کاملMass loss from OB-stars
We review recent developments regarding radiation driven mass loss from OB-stars. We first summarize the fundamental theoretical predictions, and then compare these to observational results (including the VLT-FLAMES survey of massive stars). Especially we focus on the mass loss-metallicity dependence and on the so-called bi-stability jump. Subsequently we concentrate on two urgent problems, wea...
متن کاملChemical evolution of high-mass stars in close binaries. I. The eclipsing binary V453 Cygni
The eclipsing and double-lined spectroscopic binary system V453 Cygni consists of two early B-type stars, one of which is nearing the terminal age main sequence and one which is roughly halfway through its main sequence lifetime. Accurate measurements of the masses and radii of the two stars are available, which makes a detailed abundance analysis both more interesting and more precise than for...
متن کاملMass loss and very low-metallicity stars
Mass loss plays a dominant role in the evolution of massive stars at solar metallicity. After discussing different mass loss mechanisms and their metallicity dependence, we present the possibility of strong mass loss at very low metallicity. Our models at Z = 10−8 show that stars more massive than about 60 M⊙ may lose a significant fraction of their initial mass in the red supergiant phase. Thi...
متن کاملMass loss predictions for hot stars
I present the results of radiation-driven mass-loss predictions for hot stars of all mass. Mass loss is an important aspect for the evolution of massive stars, the rotational properties of the progenitors of gamma-ray bursts, and is essential in assessing whether the most massive stars explode as pair-instability supernovae, or avoid them due to mass loss. As a result, the rate of mass loss is ...
