Pop III.1 stars will likely ionize their host minihalo, suppress H2 formation in very nearby halos, drive ionization fronts into nearby halos (perhaps inducing star formation - Whalen et al. 08)

Pop III.2 stars have their initial conditions significantly affected by astrophysical sources.

We expect the primary effect is due to ionizing radiation: gas that has been ionized and then recombines, has a high residual e- fraction, which catalyzes H2 and HD production.

Fate of NON-ROTATING metal-free stars (Heger & Woosley 2002)

However, rapid rotation can lead to significant mass loss (Meynet et al. 2004, 2006; Hirschi 2006), so initial stellar mass is not necessarily the final pre-SN mass. Growth of Cosmic Structure During the Dark Ages

1. Recombination z ≈1200, start of “dark ages” 2. Thermal equilibrium matter-CBR until z ≈160 : independent of z e.g. globular clusters 3. Thermal decoupling, Growth of Cosmic Structure During the Dark Ages

Redshift dependence of K’

O’Shea & Norman (2007) K’ increases from ~0.37 at z=30 to ~4.3 at z=20.

For PopIII.1 stars ->m*= 40M to 900M Redshift dependence of IMF: Pop III.1

Redshift dependence of K’

O’Shea & Norman (2007) K’ increases from ~0.37 at z=30 to ~4.3 at z=20.

For PopIII.1 stars ->m*= 40M to 900M

However, maybe Pop III.1 stars no longer exist by z=20 because of stellar feedback from previous stars.
