我们研究了贫金属 ([Fe/H]<-2.5) 银河晕恒星样本化学丰度的内在散射。我们从四次历史调查中抽取样本,并将注意力集中在恒星的镁、钙、镍和铁丰度上。利用这些元素,我们使用随机化学富集模型研究了这些贫金属恒星的化学富集情况。假设这些恒星已经被第一代大质量无金属恒星富集,我们考虑富集族群的质量分布以及超新星的恒星混合和爆炸能量。对于我们对恒星产量的选择,我们的模型表明,平均来说,最贫金属的恒星富含 N*=5^{+13}_{-3} (1 sigma) 星族 III 恒星。这与推断最贫金属 DLA 的富集恒星数量相当。因此,我们的分析表明,z~3 处的一些最低质量结构包含来自 <13 (2 sigma) 族 III 富集的迷你晕的化学产物。推断的 IMF 与 Salpeter 分布一致,并且优先考虑来自最小混合超新星的喷射物。然而,估计的富集模型对恒星样本的微小变化很敏感。 [Mg/Ca] 丰度中约 0.1 dex 的偏移量对推断的富集恒星数量很敏感。我们认为这种方法有可能限制第一代恒星的多重性,但这需要:(1)系统误差很好理解的恒星样本; (2) 记录了与核合成产量相关的不确定性。
We investigate the intrinsic scatter in the chemical abundances of a sample of metal-poor ([Fe/H]<-2.5) Milky Way halo stars. We draw our sample from four historic surveys and focus our attention on the stellar Mg, Ca, Ni, and Fe abundances. Using these elements, we investigate the chemical enrichment of these metal-poor stars using a model of stochastic chemical enrichment. Assuming that these stars have been enriched by the first generation of massive metal-free stars, we consider the mass distribution of the enriching population alongside the stellar mixing and explosion energy of their supernovae. For our choice of stellar yields, our model suggests that the most metal-poor stars were enriched, on average, by N*=5^{+13}_{-3} (1 sigma) Population III stars. This is comparable to the number of enriching stars inferred for the most metal-poor DLAs. Our analysis therefore suggests that some of the lowest mass structures at z~3 contain the chemical products from <13 (2 sigma) Population III enriched minihaloes. The inferred IMF is consistent with that of a Salpeter distribution and there is a preference towards ejecta from minimally mixed hypernovae. However, the estimated enrichment model is sensitive to small changes in the stellar sample. An offset of ~0.1 dex in the [Mg/Ca] abundance is shown to be sensitive to the inferred number of enriching stars. We suggest that this method has the potential to constrain the multiplicity of the first generation of stars, but this will require: (1) a stellar sample whose systematic errors are well understood; and, (2) documented uncertainties associated with nucleosynthetic yields.
