On the Formation and Interaction of Multiple Supermassive Stars in Cosmological Flows
Tyrone E. Woods, Samuel Patrick, Daniel J. Whalen +1
Supermassive primordial stars with masses exceeding that form in atomically cooled halos are the leading candidates for the origin of high-redshift quasars wi…
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…
