Metals enhance the cooling efficiency of molecular clouds,promoting fragmentation.Consequently,increasing the metallicity may boost the formation of low-mass stars.Within the integrated galactic initial mass function(IGIMF)theory,this effect is empirically captured by a linear relation between the slope of the low-mass stellar IMF,α_1,and the metal mass fraction,Z.This linearα_1-Z relation has been calibrated up to≈2Z_☉,though higher metallicity environments are known to exist.We show that if the linearα_1-Z relation extends to higher metallicities([Z]■0.5),massive star formation is suppressed entirely.Alternatively,fragmentation efficiency may saturate beyond some metallicity threshold if gravitational collapse cascades rapidly enough.To model this behavior,we propose a logistic function describing the transition from metallicity-sensitive to metallicityinsensitive fragmentation regimes.We provide a user-friendly public code,pyIGIMF,which enables the instantaneous computation of the IGIMF theory with both linear and logisticα_1-Z relations. 展开更多
