Synthetic Spectra of Pair-Instability Supernovae in 3D

E. Chatzopoulos, M. S. Gilmer, R. T. Wollaeger +2

Pair-Instability Supernovae (PISNe) may signal the deaths of extremely massive stars in the local Universe or massive primordial stars after the end of the Cosmic Dark Ages. Hydrod…

The Neutrino Signal From Pair Instability Supernovae

Warren P. Wright, Matthew S. Gilmer, Carla Fröhlich +1

A very massive star with a carbon-oxygen core in the range of M M is expected to undergo a very different kind of explosion known as a…

Pair-Instability Supernova Simulations: Progenitor Evolution, Explosion, and Light Curves

Matthew S. Gilmer, Alexandra Kozyreva, Raphael Hirschi +2

In recent years, the viability of the pair-instability supernova (PISN) scenario for explaining superluminous supernovae has all but disappeared except for a few slowly-evolving ex…

Fast evolving pair-instability supernova models: evolution, explosion, light curves

Alexandra Kozyreva, Matthew Gilmer, Raphael Hirschi +11

With an increasing number of superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) discovered the question of their origin remains open and causes heated debates in the supernova community. Currently,…

Effects of Dimensionality on Pair-Instability Supernova Explosions

Matthew S. Gilmer, Alexandra Kozyreva, Raphael Hirschi +1

Since the emergence of the new class of extremely bright transients, super-luminous supernovae (SLSNe), three main mechanisms to power their light curves (LCs) have been discussed.…
