Understand
An exact relation between the Ni56 mass and the bolometric light curve of a type Ia supernova can be derived as follows, using the following excellent approximations: 1.
- the emission is powered solely by Ni56-> Co56 ->Fe56; 2.
- each mass element propagates at a non-relativistic velocity which is constant in time (free coasting); and 3.
- the internal energy is dominated by radiation.
