TL;DR
This paper reviews models of the first supernovae in the early universe, discussing their physics, computational approaches, and implications for cosmic evolution.
Contribution
It provides a comprehensive overview of current models and methods used to understand the first supernovae and their impact on the early universe.
Findings
First supernovae likely injected large amounts of energy and metals into the primordial medium.
Models suggest supernovae played a significant role in early cosmic evolution.
Recent simulations improve understanding of supernova physics in the primordial context.
Abstract
Modern cosmological simulations predict that the first generation of stars formed with a mass scale around 100 solar masses about 300-400 million years after the Big Bang. When the first stars reached the end of their lives, many of them might have died as energetic supernovae that could have significantly affected the early Universe via injecting large amounts of energy and metals into the primordial intergalactic medium. In this paper, we review the current models of the first supernovae by discussing on the relevant background physics, computational methods, and the latest results.
