Structure, Evolution and Nucleosynthesis of Primordial Stars
  (abridge version) The evolution of population III stars (Z=0) is followed from the pre-main sequence phase up to the AGB phase for intermediate-mass stars and up to C ignition in more massive stars...We find that, thanks to the development of mixing episodes (carbon injections) at the beginning of the AGB phase, the carbon abundance of the 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4 and 5Mo models is significantly increased in the envelope. This process then allows low- and intermediate-mass stars to achieve a ``standard'' thermally pulsing AGB phase... In the 7Mo model, the CNO envelope abundance following the second dredge-up is so large that the star does not experience the carbon injection episode and follows a more standard thermally pulsing AGB evolution. Our computations also indicate that, thanks to a small overshooting at the base of the convective envelope, the third dredge-up is already operating in stars with M >~1.5 Mo after a few pulses, and that by the end of our modeling, hot bottom burning is activated in stars more massive than ~ 2Mo. This evolutionary behavior suggests that primordial low- and intermediate stars could have been significant contributors to the production of primary 12C, 14N, and may have contributed to some extent to the production of Mg and Al and possibly s-elements (despite the lack of iron seeds) in the early universe.
