Stellar relics in the Milky Way

No spectral features

Ordinary stars like the sun contains a few percent (in mass) of heavy elements → many lines in the spectrum

  • There are many stars in Galaxy

that contain less amount of heavey elements

  • A few of them contain almost

no elements other than hydrogen and helium. Sun

Seemingly different phenomena

  • Prompt emission of high-energy photons
  • Emergence of a super-massive blackhole
  • A nearby star with very low metal content

They may have the same origin, which is also related, ultimately, to the beginning of our own existence.

Summary

  • Formation of massive primordial stars as
  • rigin of objects in the early universe
  • Supernova explosions might be visible to

the most distant places

  • Rapid growth of a primordial star makes

a supermassive star and possibly a BH
