چکیده

We calculate multicomponent line-driven wind models of stars at extremely low metallicity suitable for massive first generation stars. For most of the models we find that the multicomponent wind nature is not important for either wind dynamics or for wind temperature stratification. However, for stars with the lowest metallicities we find that multicomponent effects influence the wind structure. These effects range from pure heating to possible fallback of the nonabsorbing wind component. We present a simple formula for the calculation of metallicity for which the multicomponent effects become important. We show that the importance of the multicomponent nature of winds of low metallicity stars is characterised not only by the low density of driving ions, but also by lower mass-loss rate.

Line-driven winds, ionizing fluxes and UV-spectra of hot stars at extremely low metallicity. I. Very massive O-stars

Wind models of very massive stars with metallicities in a range from 10−4 to 1.0 solar are calculated using a new treatment of radiation driven winds with depth dependent radiative force multipliers and a comprehensive list of more than two million of spectral lines in NLTE. The models are tested by a comparison with observed stellar wind properties of O stars in the Galaxy and the SMC. Satisfy...

Mass-loss and multicomponent flow from central stars of planetary nebulae

Since the acceleration of different wind species may be different, their wind velocities may differ and so hot star winds have a multicomponent nature. For high density winds (e.g. of galactic O stars) this multicomponent nature does not influence the wind structure, however for low density winds multicomponent effects occur, for example frictional heating, decoupling of wind components, etc. (...

Effects of Rotation on Mass Loss for Population III stars

The effects of rotation on low-metallicity stellar models are twofold: first, the models reach break-up during main sequence and may lose mass by mechanical process; second, strong internal mixing brings freshly synthesized elements towards the surface and raises the effective metallicity to higher values, so that the initially very low radiative winds are enhanced. Those two effects are also f...

Luminous Blue Variable Stars In The Two Extremely Metal - Deficient Blue Compact Dwarf Galaxies DDO 68 and PHL 293

We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of two luminous blue variable (LBV) stars in two extremely metal-deficient blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxies, DDO 68 with 12+logO/H = 7.15 and PHL 293B with 12+logO/H = 7.72. These two BCDs are the lowest-metallicity galaxies where LBV stars have been detected, allowing to study the LBV phenomenon in the extremely low metallicity regime, and...

Carbon-enhanced Hyper-metal-poor Stars and the Stellar Imf at Low Metallicity

The two known “hyper-metal-poor” (HMP) stars, HE0107-5240 and HE1327-2326, have extremely high enhancements of the light elements C, N, and O relative to Fe and appear to represent a statistically significant excess population relative to the halo metallicity distribution extrapolated from [Fe/H] > −3. This study weighs the available evidence for and against three hypothetical origins for these...
