True Pair-instability Supernova Descendant: Implications for the First Stars’ Mass Distribution

The initial mass function (IMF) of the first Population III (Pop III) stars remains a persistent mystery. Their predicted massive nature implies the existence of stars exploding as pair-instability supernovae (PISNe), but no observational evidence had been found. Now, the LAMOST survey claims to hav...
