Model spectra of hot stars at the pre-SN stage

DOI

We investigate the fundamental properties of core-collapse Supernova (SN) progenitors from single stars at solar metallicity. We combine Geneva stellar evolutionary models with initial masses of Mini=20-120M_{sun} with atmospheric/wind models using CMFGEN. We provide synthetic photometry and high-resolution spectra of hot stars at the pre-SN stage. For Mini=9-20M{sun}, we supplement our analysis using publicly available MARCS model atmospheres of RSGs. We employ observational criteria of spectroscopic classification and find that massive stars, depending on Mini and rotation, end their lives as red supergiants (RSG), yellow hypergiants (YHG), luminous blue variables (LBV), and Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars of the WN and WO spectral types. For rotating models, we obtain the following types of SN progenitors: WO1-3 (Mini<=32M{sun}_), WN10-11 (25
