Scientific paper

The authors discuss the possibility that the first objects forming in a universe dominated by cold dark matter might influence subsequent structure. They argue that the first objects would be stars forming in clusters of mass ≡105M_sun; which have condensed from the high-σ overdensity peaks in the initial fluctuation spectrum. Two simple mechanisms - photoionization and supernovae - may cause feedback effects which can significantly perturb the subsequent evolution from a simple hierarchical clustering progression. The authors discuss the possibility that effects arising from these initial small-scale clusters might influence regions on galactic scales and suggest tentative ideas which may give clues to the biasing of galaxy formation necessary in an Ω = 1 universe.
