We briefly review observations of CEMP stars in different environments (Galactic stellar halo, ultra-faint and classical dwarf galaxies) and interpret their properties using cosmological chemical-evolution models for the formation of the Local Group. We discuss the implications of current observations for the properties of the first stars, clarify why the fraction of carbon-enhanced to carbon-normal stars varies in dwarf galaxies with different luminosity, and discuss the origin of the first CEMP(-no) star found in the Sculptor dwarf galaxy.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-12-17T09:33:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars", "environments", "sculptor dwarf galaxy", "carbon-normal stars varies", "first stellar generations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv151205506S" } } }
