    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_population

    In reality, many population I stars are also found mixed in with the older population II stars. In 1944 , Walter Baade categorized groups of stars within the Milky Way into stellar populations . In the abstract of the article by Baade, he recognizes that Jan Oort originally conceived this type of classification in 1926 .

    HE 1523-0901 is the designation given to a red giant star in the Milky Way galaxy approximately 9,900 light-years from Earth. It is thought to be a second generation, Population II, or metal-poor, star ([Fe/H] = −2.95). The star was found in the sample of bright metal-poor halo stars from the Hamburg/ESO Survey by Anna Frebel and

    The first generation of stars, known as Population III stars, formed within a few hundred million years after the Big Bang. [58] These stars were the first source of visible light in the universe after recombination. Structures may have begun to emerge from around 150 million years, and early galaxies emerged from around 180 to 700 million years.

    HE 1327-2326, discovered in 2005 by Anna Frebel and collaborators, [2] was the star with the lowest known iron abundance until SMSS J031300.36−670839.3 was discovered. [5] The star is a member of Population II stars , with a solar-standardised iron to hydrogen index [Fe/H], or metallicity , of −5.4±0.2.

    This means that SDSS J0018−0939 most likely preserved the elemental abundance ratios produced by a first-generation very-massive star. [7] First generation stars are expected to self-regulate their growth by radiative feedback in the formation process, and to achieve masses typically tens of times that of the Sun. A fraction of stars might ...

    Unexpectedly, they found that this cluster is composed of three generations of stars, all born within 200 million years of the formation of the cluster. [ 8 ] Astronomers have argued that globular clusters can produce only one generation of stars, because the radiation from first generation stars would drive the residual gas not consumed in the ...
