Title: Supernova Feedback and the First Galaxies

Author(s): Thomas Greif

Abstract: Recent advances in simulation methods have made it possible to include radiative, mechanical and chemical feedback of individual Pop III stars in the wake of the first galaxies, allowing us to model these objects with unprecedented accuracy. In this talk I present simulations that address some of the most pressing questions. Among these are the degree of enrichment and mixing within the first galaxies, as well as the prospect of forming the first stellar clusters consisting of low-mass Pop I/II stars.
