核心坍缩型超新星前身星简述

A brief review on progenitors of core-collapse supernovae

大质量恒星(>8 M■,M■表示太阳质量)的死亡伴随着超新星爆发和伽玛射线暴等剧烈现象.研究和限制不同类型超新星的前身星属性一直是天体物理领域的热点.本文总结了核心坍缩型超新星前身星的观测和理论研究现状,介绍了质量损失和自转等因素的影响.

The death of massive stars(>8 M■,M■is the mass of the sun)is accompanied by violent phenomena such as supernovae and gamma-ray bursts.In astrophysical research,supernova progenitors of different types have been emphatically studied.In this paper,we review the current status of observations and theoretical models on the progenitors of core-collapse supernovae and introduce effects of mass loss and rotation on stellar evolution.
