LOSS Revisited - I: Unraveling correlations between supernova rates and galaxy properties, as measured in a reanalysis of the Lick Observatory Supernova Search
Or Graur, Federica B. Bianco, Shan Huang +5
Most types of supernovae (SNe) have yet to be connected with their progenitor stellar systems. Here, we reanalyze the 10-year SN sample collected during 1998-2008 by the Lick Obser…
No evidence for Population III stars or a Direct Collapse Black Hole in the z = 6.6 Lyman- emitter 'CR7'
R. A. A. Bowler, R. J. McLure, J. S. Dunlop +4
The z = 6.6 Lyman- emitter 'CR7' has been claimed to have a Population III-like stellar population, or alternatively, be a candidate Direct Collapse Black Hole (DCBH). In this p…
Diffuse Galactic antimatter from faint thermonuclear supernovae in old stellar populations
Roland M. Crocker, Ashley J. Ruiter, Ivo R. Seitenzahl +10
Our Galaxy hosts the annihilation of a few low-energy positrons every second. Radioactive isotopes capable of supplying such positrons are synthesised in stars, st…
Wolf-Rayet stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud: II. Analysis of the binaries
T. Shenar, R. Hainich, H. Todt +7
Massive WR stars are evolved massive stars characterized by strong mass-loss. Hypothetically, they can form either as single stars or as mass donors in close binaries. About 40% of…
BPASS predictions for Binary Black-Hole Mergers
J. J. Eldridge, E. R. Stanway
Using the Binary Population and Spectral Synthesis code BPASS, we have calculated the rates, timescales and mass distributions for binary black hole mergers as a function of metall…
Progenitor constraints for core-collapse supernovae from Chandra X-ray observations
T. Heikkilä, S. Tsygankov, S. Mattila +3
The progenitors of hydrogen-poor core-collapse supernovae (SNe) of types Ib, Ic and IIb are believed to have shed their outer hydrogen envelopes either by extremely strong stellar…
