HIGHLIGHTS
Birth of a massive first-star binary (Sugimura et al. 2020, ApJL)
Volume rendering of the density field, together with ionization fronts (blue surfaces) and protostars (particles). Bipolar ionized bubbles are formed around both of the single star and minitriplet system. See also a highlight page provided by AAS nova. The movie was created by Dr. Kazu Sugimura.
Evolutionary Tracks of Accreting Massive Protostars
Hosokawa & Omukai (2009): w/ various constant accretion rates, shock outer boundary condition, and solar metallicity
The attached ascii data files, md3x3.dat, md3.dat, md4.dat, md5.dat, md6.dat, are the evolutionary tracks for the cases with different accretion rates of mdot = 3e-3, 1e-3, 1e-4, 1e-5, and 1e-6 Msun/yr. The data format is as follows (also see the first line of each file):
