Some First Stars Were Red: Detecting Signatures of Massive Population III Formation Through Long-Term Stochastic Color Variations
Tyrone E. Woods, Chris J. Willott, John A. Regan +4
Identifying stars formed in pristine environments (Pop III) within the first billion years is vital to uncovering the earliest growth and chemical evolution of galaxies. Pop III ga…
Probing supermassive stars and massive black hole seeds through gravitational wave inspirals
Yael Raveh, Yonadav Barry Ginat, Hagai B. Perets +1
We propose a novel source of gravitational wave emission: the inspirals of compact fragments inside primordial supermassive stars (SMSs). Such systems are thought to be an essentia…
On the Evolution of Supermassive Primordial Stars in Cosmological Flows
Tyrone E. Woods, Samuel Patrick, Jacob S. Elford +2
Primordial supermassive stars (SMSs) formed in atomic-cooling halos at z ~ 15 - 20 are leading candidates for the seeds of the first quasars. Past numerical studies of the evolutio…
LIN 358: A symbiotic binary accreting above the steady hydrogen fusion limit
J. Kuuttila, M. Gilfanov, T. E. Woods +2
Symbiotic binaries are long period interacting binaries consisting of a white dwarf (WD) accreting material from a cool evolved giant star via stellar winds. In this paper we study…
Discovery of a ~30-Year-Duration Post-Nova Pulsating Supersoft Source in the Large Magellanic Cloud
G. Vasilopoulos, F. Koliopanos, T. E. Woods +3
Supersoft X-ray sources (SSS) have been identified as white dwarfs accreting from binary companions and undergoing nuclear-burning of the accreted material on their surface. Althou…
The Formation of Very Massive Stars in Early Galaxies and Implications for Intermediate Mass Black Holes
John A. Regan, John H. Wise, Tyrone E. Woods +3
We investigate the ab-initio formation of super-massive stars in a pristine atomic cooling halo. The halo is extracted from a larger self-consistent parent simulation. The halo rem…
