EARLY EMISSION FROM TYPE Ia SUPERNOVAE
EARLY EMISSION FROM TYPE Ia SUPERNOVAE
A unique feature of deflagration-to-detonation (DDT) white dwarf explosion models of supernovae of type Ia is the presence of a strong shock wave propagating through the outer envelope. We consider the early emission expected in such models, which is produced by the expanding shock-heated outer part of the ejecta and …
