The nickel mass distribution of stripped-envelope supernovae: implications for additional power sources

N Afsariardchi, MR Drout, DK Khatami…�- The Astrophysical�…, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
We perform a systematic study of the 56 Ni mass (M Ni) of 27 stripped-envelope
supernovae (SESNe) by modeling their light-curve tails, highlighting that use of" Arnett's rule" …

Infant-phase reddening by surface Fe-peak elements in a normal type Ia supernova

…, G Hosseinzadeh, S Valenti, N Afsariardchi…�- Nature�…, 2022 - nature.com
Type Ia supernovae are thermonuclear explosions of white dwarf stars. They play a central
role in the chemical evolution of the Universe and are an important measure of cosmological …
