摘要
Bolometric light curves provide a valuable insight into the nature of type Ia supernovae. We present an analysis of sixteen well-observed type Ia supernovae. Constraints are placed on several global parameters concerning the progenitor system, explosion mechanism, and subsequent radiation transport. By fitting a radioactive decay energy deposition function to the quasi-exponentia l phase (50 to 100 days after maximum light), it is found that the ejected mass varies by at least a factor of two. This result suggests that a sub Chandrasekhar mass white dwarf could be the progenitor system of some type Ia supernovae. We find that the range in the amount of synthesized 56 Ni indicates a significant variation in the burning mechanism. In order to explain a factor of ten range in the observed bolometric luminosity, more detailed modeling of the explosion mechanism is required.
