IMF of Population III according to the two-dimensional radiation hydrodynamics simulations of Hosokawa et al. ( 2011 ), but applied to 100 different minihalos. The various colors and hatchings represent different paths of protostellar evolution: P1 denotes a Kelvin-Helmholtz contracting protostar, P1hd a halo in which HD cooling was activated, P2 an oscillating protostar, and P3 and P3p super-giant protostars. Adapted from Hirano et al. (2014).
