Hydrogen-Poor Circumstellar Shells from Pulsational Pair-Instability Supernovae with Rapidly Rotating Progenitors
E. Chatzopoulos, J. Craig Wheeler
In certain mass ranges, massive stars can undergo a violent pulsation triggered by the electron/positron pair instability that ejects matter, but does not totally disrupt the star.…

Self-shielding of Soft X-rays in SN Ia Progenitors
J. Craig Wheeler, David A. Pooley
There are insufficient super soft (~ 0.1 keV) X-ray sources in either spiral or elliptical galaxies to account for the rate of explosion of Type Ia supernovae in either the single…

Effects of Rotation on the Minimum Mass of Primordial Progenitors of Pair Instability Supernovae
Emmanouil Chatzopoulos, J. Craig Wheeler
The issue of which stars may reach the conditions of electron/positron pair formation instability is of importance to understand the final evolution both of the first stars and of…
