Asymmetry in the Outburst of SN 1987A Detected Using Light Echo Spectroscopy
B. Sinnott, D. L. Welch, A. Rest +2
We report direct evidence for asymmetry in the early phases of SN 1987A via optical spectroscopy of five fields of its light echo system. The light echoes allow the first few hundr…

Gamma-Ray Transfer and Energy Deposition in Supernovae
Douglas A. Swartz, Peter G. Sutherland, Robert P. Harkness
Solutions to the energy-independent (gray) radiative transfer equations are compared to results of Monte Carlo simulations of the \Ni and \Co radioactive decay \GR energy depositio…

A New Radiation Hydrodynamics Code and Application to the Calculation of Type Ia Supernovae Light Curves and Continuum Spectra
Xiao-he Zhang, Peter Sutherland
A new, fully dynamic and self-consistent radiation hydrodynamics code, suitable for the calculation of supernovae light curves and continuum spectra, is described. It is a multigro…
