Abstract

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) may provide the first direct observational evidence of the primordial stars that populated the universe at redshifts of \(z \gtrsim 15\). These cosmic explosions can shed light on the properties of their progenitors as well as that of the circumburst medium. We have performed numerical simulations of realistic environments for a variety of long-duration GRB progenitors with ZEUS-MP, and have applied a semi-analytic method to calculating GRB light curves in these profiles. We compare light curves produced by collapsars and binary merger events, and find that GRBs produced via the collapse of a single massive star may produce afterglows that are distinguishable from those produced by GRBs that result from stellar mergers. We also find that Population (Pop) II and Pop III GRB afterglows may be detectable at z ≥ 15 with current and proposed instruments at X-ray, infrared, and radio frequencies.
