摘要:

我们目前的观测证据表明,在早期宇宙的第一颗恒星可能发生了非球面超新星爆炸。我们的结果是基于首次在哈勃太空望远镜/宇宙起源摄谱仪高分辨率紫外光谱中测定的一颗超贫金属(HMP)恒星HE 1327 -2326的Zn丰度,[Fe/H](NLTE)=-5.2。我们从在$3.4σ$检测到的2138处的UV Zn I线确定[Zn/Fe] = 0.80 $\pm$ 0.25。一个25兆的$_{\odot}$非球面超新星模型,其密度被人为修改,爆炸能量为E = 5 × 10 $^{51}$尔格,其产额与HE 1327 -2326的整个丰度模式最匹配。这种高熵的超新星爆炸预计会产生双极外流,这可能有助于小型邻近星系的外部富集。这已经被最早的恒星形成小晕的理论研究所预测。这种情况将对整个早期宇宙的化学富集产生重大影响,因为HMP碳增强贫金属(CEMP)恒星,如HE 1327 -2326,可能在这种外部富集环境中形成。

英文摘要:

We present observational evidence that an aspherical supernova explosion could have occurred in the First stars in the early universe. Our results are based on the First determination of a Zn abundance in a Hubble Space Telescope/Cosmic Origins Spectrograph high-resolution UV spectrum of a hyper metal-poor (HMP) star, HE1327-2326, with [Fe/H](NLTE) = -5.2. We determine [Zn/Fe] = 0.80$\pm$0.25 from a UV Zn I line at 2138 detected at $3.4σ$. Yields of a 25M$_{\odot}$ aspherical supernova model with artificially modified densities exploding with E = 5x10$^{51}$ ergs best match the entire abundance pattern of HE1327-2326. Such high-entropy hypernova explosions are expected to produce bipolar outfows which could facilitate the external enrichment of small neighboring galaxies. This has already been predicted by theoretical studies of the earliest star forming minihalos. Such a scenario would have significant implications for the chemical enrichment across the early universe as HMP Carbon Enhanced Metal-Poor (CEMP) stars such as HE1327-2326 might have formed in such externally enriched environments.
