The Physics of Primordial and Low-Metallicity Star Formation

Explore the physics of primordial and low-metallicity star formation in this 37-minute conference talk by Raffaella Schneider from the University of Rome. Delivered as part of the "Cosmic Dawn Revealed by JWST: The Physics of the First Stars, Galaxies, and Black Holes" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, delve into the exciting exploration of cosmic dawn and the latest discoveries from JWST. Gain insights into the nature of first stars, galaxies, and black hole seeds, as well as the stellar populations of early galaxies. Examine the star formation and chemical enrichment histories of these ancient cosmic structures, and understand the key physical processes shaping their evolution. Connect the perspectives from near-field and deep field observations in this comprehensive discussion bringing together theorists and observers at the forefront of astrophysical research.
