Using ${}^{44}$Ti Emission to Differentiate Between Thermonuclear Supernova Progenitors

Daniel Kosakowski, Mark Ivan Ugalino, Robert Fisher +3

The radiosotope ${}^{44}$Ti is produced through $\alpha$-rich freezeout and explosive helium burning in type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). In this paper, we discuss how the detection of ${}^{44}$…
