Description

The first stars in the Universe (Population III) are thought to be the
responsible for synthesizing the first heavy elements, thereby creating
the chemical conditions from which the second generation of stars has formed. One of the aims of
current investigations is to better constraint the Initial Mass Function
of Pop III stars from the observed abundance patterns of extremely
metal poor stars, which is essential to model their influence on cosmic
history. We present a set of predictions for the abundance ratios of C,
O, N, Ba, Eu and CNO yields, assuming different types of IMFs. We will
briefly discuss the parameter space that is consistent with the extremely
metal poor stars known so far.
