Does Radiative Feedback by the First Stars Promote or Prevent Second   Generation Star Formation?
  We study the effect of starlight from the first stars on the ability of other minihaloes in their neighborhood to form additional stars. The question of what the dynamical consequences were for these target minihaloes, of their exposure to the ionizing and dissociating starlight from the Pop III star requires a full radiation-hydrodynamics calculation. Towards this end, we have performed a series of detailed, 1D, radiation-hydrodynamical simulations. We have varied the distance to the source (and, hence, the flux) and the mass and evolutionary stage of the target haloes to quantify this effect. We find: (1) trapping of the I-front and its transformation from R-type to D-type, preceded by a shock front; (2) photoevaporation of the ionized gas (i.e. all gas originally located outside the trapping radius); (3) formation of an H_2 precursor shell which leads the I-front, stimulated by partial photoionization; and (4) the shock-induced formation of H_2 in the minihalo neutral core when the shock speeds up and partially ionizes the gas. The fate of the neutral core is mostly determined by the response of the core to this shock front, which leads to molecular cooling and collapse that, when compared to the same halo without external radiation, is either: (a) expedited, (b) delayed, (c) unaltered, or (d) reversed or prevented, depending upon the flux (i.e. distance to the source) and the halo mass and evolutionary stage. Roughly speaking, most haloes that were destined to cool, collapse, and form stars in the absence of external radiation are found to do so even when exposed to the first Pop III star in their neighborhood, while those that would not have done so are still not able to.
