Discovery Early Career Researcher Award
Grant Activity:
Uncovering the enigmatic origins of the brightest supernovae
Purpose:
This project aims to uncover the origins of extremely bright supernovae called superluminous supernovae. How and why massive stars end their lives as superluminous supernovae is unknown. Based on their shapes and similarities to other peculiar supernovae, this project should clarify the mechanisms that lead massive stars to explode as superluminous supernovae. The project also aims to develop superluminous supernovae as a tool to investigate the distant universe. By observing superluminous supernovae in the distant universe, this project should address the properties of the first generation stars in the universe and advance our understanding of stellar evolution, supernovae, and the early universe.
