This project investigates a newly discovered class of ultra-luminous supernovae that challenge existing astrophysical theories. Utilizing the Pan-STARRS telescope survey, it aims to quantify these phenomena and determine their origins, particularly focusing on whether they are linked to early Universe stars.
Until the last few years, all of the exploding stars in the Universe were thought to be of two types : core-collapse of a massive star or thermonuclear explosion of a white dwarf.
The advent of wide-field synoptic sky surveys has opened up a new parameter space which allows very large volumes of the Universe to be searched for explosive stars. A new class of ""ultra-luminous"" supernovae have been discovered that challenge our physical understanding.
These optical transients are typically 20-100…
