
If a truly first star is massive, it emits strong UV radiation, which
should affect subsequent evolution of other prestellar fragments.

Fragmentation !
Omukai 2000
For HD dominant clouds, EOS is almost isothermal.
Thus, there is a possibility for the fragments to break up into multiple cores.
Fragment mass ~ 10-40 M8.

Truly first stars may be very massive as ~100 M8.
But, many first generation stars may have masses of

cooling
3. Pressure-driven expansion
Step 1: 1D calculation
We follow the evolution of the SNR shell with the thin-shell approximation.
・Dynamical evolution : analytic model
・Thermal evolution : radiative cooling + time-dependent chemical evolution
Step 2: 2D hydrodynamic simulation
Then, we follow fragmentation of the cooling shell with the thin-disk approximation.

Fragmentation of Cooling Shells

Mass fraction of dense regions reaches ~0.7.
→ star formation efficiency may be high.
M: Mach number of the
velocity perturbations

Dense cores are rotating very rapidly.
Fragmentation Condition of SNR
The shell should be self-gravitating before blow out.
Expansion velocity should be larger than the sound speed.

Dense cores may fragment into small cores with masses of ~ 1 M8.
The efficiency of star formation may be high.
Shock-Cloud Interaction
Shock can trigger gravitational collapse before KH instability
grows significantly.
The density can become greater
Polytrope gas, 2D axisymmetric, no self-gravity

isothermal case.
Nakamura, McKee, & Klein (in prep.)
Fragmentation into 1M8 cores is
expected due to efficient H2
cooling by three-body reaction.
