Pair-Instability Supernovae in the Local Universe
Daniel J. Whalen, Wesley Even, Joseph Smidt +7
The discovery of 150 - 300 M stars in the Local Group and pair-instability supernova candidates at low redshifts has excited interest in this exotic explosion mechanism.…
Supermassive Population III Supernovae and the Birth of the First Quasars
Daniel J. Whalen, Wesley Even, Joseph Smidt +6
The existence of supermassive black holes as early as z ~ 7 is one of the great unsolved problems in cosmological structure formation. One leading theory argues that they are born…
Finding the First Cosmic Explosions II: Core-Collapse Supernovae
Daniel J. Whalen, Candace C. Joggerst, Chris L. Fryer +3
Understanding the properties of Pop III stars is prerequisite to elucidating the nature of primeval galaxies, the chemical enrichment and reionization of the early IGM, and the ori…
The Early Evolution of Primordial Pair-Instability Supernovae
C. C. Joggerst, Daniel Whalen
The observational signatures of the first cosmic explosions and their chemical imprint on second-generation stars both crucially depend on how heavy elements mix within the star at…
3D simulations of Rayleigh-Taylor mixing in core-collapse SNe with CASTRO
C. C. Joggerst, A. Almgren, S. E. Woosley
We present multidimensional simulations of the post-explosion hydrodynamics in three different 15 solar mass supernova models with zero, 10^{-4} solar metallicity, and solar metall…
