Formation of metal-free binaries: Impact of H$_{2}$ line cooling and CIE cooling
During primordial star formation, the main cooling channel is provided by H$_{2}$ and super-molecules, such as H$_{2}$ or H$_{2}$, at sufficiently high densities. When the latter form at $n_{\rm H}$ $\geq$ $10^{14}$~cm$^{-3}$, collision-induced emission (CIE) provides efficient gas cooling. We investigate how CIE cooling affects the formation of metal-free binaries comparing simulations with and without this process. Irrespective of the cooling mechanism, we find a typical protostellar mass range between 0.01 to 100 M$_{\odot}$. However, models with only H$_{2}$ line cooling produce a greater number of low-mass protostars which exhibit stronger variations in their radial velocities than the high-mass protostars. Similarly, in models with both H$_{2}$ cooling and CIE cooling, significant variations in the radial velocities are found for protostars in the intermediate mass range. The initial number of fragments $N_{\rm max}$ decreases with increasing strength of turbulence. Cooling via super-molecules lets the most massive protobinaries (MMPBs) efficiently accrete mass. The maximum mass accretion rate $\dot M_{\rm max}$ for the MMPBs is more than an order of magnitude higher in the presence of CIE cooling than for pure H$_{2}$ line cooling. As a result, compact binaries with a semi-major axis as small as 3.57 au may form through the H$_{2}$ $-$ H$_{2}$ cooling channel. Our results indicate that in addition to the MMPBs most population III (Pop. III) binaries should be in eccentric i.e. non-circular orbits. This provides an important connection to the eccentric binaries reported in previous studies, which were found to exhibit rich temporal accretion signals during their evolution.
