| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We perform radiation hydrodynamics numerical simulations to study the birth of the first stars. We find the mass of the stars found in our simulations are in the range of 1Msun < M < 300 Msun, peaking at several x 10 Msun. We also find some fraction of the low mass stars are ejected to the outer envelope of the host minihalos. As a result, they remain less massive since they do not accrete the ambient gas efficiently. In addition, if low mass stars with M < 0.8Msun are born, which could survive until today, we find that the previously reported obsevations already put a constraint on the theory that the number of survived low mass stars per minihalo has to be less than O(1).
