Dark Stars
Invited talk
I will outline the general framework within which self-annihilating, Weakly Interacting massive models of Dark Matter can affect the first stars (Population III).
Self annihilation of DM particles during he gas cooling and collapse phase may affect weakly the properties of the cloud; we have found that however even at late stages during star formation this mechanism is not likely to provide...

Dark Stars
Invited talk
The most compelling and popular models for dark matter predict that it should congregate and annihilate in stellar cores. Stars where annihilation contributes substantially to the total energy budget look very different to those with which we are familiar. I will describe the general features of stars modified by dark matter annihilation with the help of a series of grids of 'dark' stellar...
