Oblique Shock Breakout in Supernovae and Gamma-Ray Bursts: I. Dynamics and Observational Implications
Christopher D. Matzner, Yuri Levin, Stephen Ro
In a non-spherical stellar explosion, non-radial motions become important near the stellar surface. For realistic deviations from spherical symmetry, non-radial flow dramatically a…

Shock Emergence in Supernovae: Limiting Cases and Accurate Approximations
Stephen Ro, Christopher D. Matzner
We examine the dynamics of accelerating normal shocks in stratified planar atmospheres, providing accurate fitting formulae for the scaling index relating shock velocity to the ini…
