Unveiling star formation at sub-solar metallicity with ALMA2040

ALMA2040 identifies similarities and differences between star-forming regions with different metallicities. It investigates how lower metallicity affects physical and chemical pathways leading to star formation, such as core mass, stellar initial mass function (IMF), and protoplanetary disk evolution. The research explores whether environmental conditions fundamentally alter the processes that create stars.
