摘要:

我们计算了零金属丰度第三族(Pop III)恒星的演化,其质量从初始质量的$\sim 1M_{\odot}$吸积周围的气体。我们的计算涵盖了一个完整的演化阶段,从主序前,通过各种核燃烧阶段,通过最后的核心崩溃或对创建不稳定阶段。我们采用以下恒星质量相关的吸积率,这些吸积率是从基于红移$z \sim 20$处的低质量暗物质晕的早期结构形成的宇宙学模拟中导出的:(1)第一代(Pop III.1)恒星的吸积率和(2)零金属丰度但受Pop III.1恒星辐射影响的第二代(Pop III.2)恒星的吸积率。为了比较,我们还研究了辐射反馈对吸积率的影响。我们发现,Pop III.1恒星的最终质量可以大到$\sim 1000M_{\odot}$,超出了对不稳定超新星的质量范围($140 - 300M_{\odot}$)。这样的大质量恒星经历核心坍缩形成中等质量黑洞,这可能是合并树到超大质量黑洞的种子。另一方面,Pop III.2恒星的质量变小($\lsim 40 - 60M_{\odot}$),处于普通铁核坍缩恒星的质量范围内。这些恒星爆炸并喷射出重元素,有助于早期宇宙的化学富集,正如在星系晕中极贫金属恒星的丰度模式中所观察到的那样。

英文摘要:

We calculate the evolution of zero-metallicity Population III (Pop III) stars whose mass grows from the initial mass of $\sim 1M_{\odot}$ by accreting the surrounding gases. Our calculations cover a whole evolutionary stages from the pre-main sequence, via various nuclear burning stages, through the final core collapse or pair-creation instability phases. We adopt the following stellar mass-dependent accretion rates which are derived from cosmological simulations of early structure formation based on the low mass dark matter halos at redshifts $z \sim 20$: (1) the accretion rates for the first generation (Pop III.1) stars and (2) the rates for zero-metallicity but the second generation (Pop III.2) stars which are affected by radiation from the Pop III.1 stars. For comparison, we also study the evolution with the mass-dependent accretion rates which are affected by radiatibe feedback. We show that the final mass of Pop III.1 stars can be as large as $\sim 1000M_{\odot}$, beyond the mass range ($140 - 300M_{\odot}$) for the pair-instability supernovae. Such massive stars undergo core-collapse to form intermediate-mass black holes, which may be the seeds for merger trees to supermassive black holes. On the other hand, Pop III.2 stars become less massive ($\lsim 40 - 60M_{\odot}$), being in the mass range of ordinary iron core-collapse stars. Such stars explode and eject heavy elements to contribute to chemical enrichment of the early universe as observed in the abundance patterns of extremely metal-poor stars in the Galactic halo.
