CONCLUSIONS

Ultra-Faint dwarfs − Ultra-faint dwarfs are fossil relics of H 2 -cooling minihaloes formed at z > 8.5. − Their broader MDF reflects the inefficient cooling by H 2 molecules. − The rare [Fe/H] < –3 stars in classical dSphs formed in progenitor minihaloes formed at very high redshifts. CONCLUSIONS ULTRA-FAINT DWARF GALAXIES Failed Ultra-Faint dwarfs − Very metal-poor DLAs are star-less minihaloes imprinted by SNII. − C-enhanced DLAs are the gas-rich counterpart of Ultra-faint dwarfs. − They host PopIII stars but their chemical imprints are hidden by normal, low- metallicity PopII stars, which start to form as soon as Z > Z cr.

FINAL REMARKS Salvadori, Schneider & Ferrara 2007 Z cr = 10 – 4 Z  Z cr = 10 – 6 Z  Z cr = 0 Galactic halo stars: 2nd generation vs all generations m PopIII = 200 M  m PopIII = ( ) M  Does the unusual chemical composition of two Hercules stars reflect the self-enrichment by first stars?
