Finding Core Collapse Supernova from the Epoch of Reionization Behind Cluster Lenses

Tony Pan, Abraham Loeb

Current surveys are underway to utilize gravitational lensing by galaxy clusters with Einstein radii >35" in the search for the highest redshift galaxies. Associated supernova from…

Super-luminous X-ray Emission from the Interaction of Supernova Ejecta with Dense Circumstellar Shells

Tony Pan, Daniel J. Patnaude, Abraham Loeb

For supernova powered by the conversion of kinetic energy into radiation due to the interactions of the ejecta with a dense circumstellar shell, we show that there could be X-ray a…

Measuring the History of Cosmic Reionization using the 21-cm Difference PDF

Tony Pan, Rennan Barkana

During cosmic reionization, the 21-cm brightness fluctuations were highly non-Gaussian, and complementary statistics can be extracted from the distribution of pixel brightness temp…

Identifying Stars of Mass >150 Msun from Their Eclipse by a Binary Companion

Tony Pan, Abraham Loeb

We examine the possibility that very massive stars greatly exceeding the commonly adopted stellar mass limit of 150 Msun may be present in young star clusters in the local universe…

Pair-Instability Supernovae at the Epoch of Reionization

Tony Pan, Daniel Kasen, Abraham Loeb

Pristine stars with masses between ~140 and 260 M_sun are theoretically predicted to die as pair-instability supernovae. These very massive progenitors could come from Pop III star…

Pair-Instability Supernovae via Collision Runaway in Young Dense Star Clusters

Tony Pan, Abraham Loeb, Daniel Kasen

Stars with helium cores between ~64 and 133 M_sun are theoretically predicted to die as pair-instability supernovae. This requires very massive progenitors, which are theoretically…
