Presupernova evolution is calculated in spherical symmetry. Collapse and explosion are calculated by a two-dimensional code, based on the bipolar jet models. We compare the results of nucleosynthesis with the abundance patterns of intracluster matter, hot gases in M82, and extremely metal-poor stars in the Galactic halo. It was found that both 500$M_{\\odot}$ and 1000$M_{\\odot}$ models enter the region of pair-instability but continue to undergo core collapse. In the presupernova stage, silicon burning regions occupy a large fraction, more than 20% of the total mass. For moderately aspherical explosions, the patterns of nucleosynthesis match the observational data of both intracluster medium and M82. Our results suggest that explosions of Population III core-collapse very-massive stars contribute significantly to the chemical evolution of gases in clusters of galaxies. For Galactic halo stars, our [O/Fe] ratios are smaller than the observational abundances. However, our proposed scenario is naturally consistent with this outcome. The final black hole masses are $\\sim 230M_{\\odot}$ and $\\sim 500M_{\\odot}$ for the $500M_{\\odot}$ and 1000$M_{\\odot}$ models, respectively. This result may support the view that Population III very massive stars are responsible for the origin of intermediate mass black holes which were recently reported to be discovered.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2006-05-09T09:43:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "nucleosynthesis", "population", "very-massive stars contribute", "final black hole masses", "intermediate mass black holes" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 49, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 688212 } } }
