Abstract
Our current understanding of the formation of the first stars, first galaxies, and first long-lived low-mass stars, will be briefly reviewed in this theoretical introduction to the Symposium "Local Group, Local Cosmology". I will underline the links between the most solid theoretical findings and the key observations of metal-poor stars and galaxies, further clarifying the purpose of the Symposium. Some of the open questions that might be addressed by exploiting the synergy between theoretical predictions and Local Group observations will be analyzed, and then discussed in more details by our invited and targeted speakers that are contributing to the present volume.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
