Global parameters of Type Ia supernovae
Abstract
Using simple physical assumptions we derived fundamental parameters including: the mass of synthesised 56Ni, the ejecta mass, and the explosion energy of Type Ia supernovae. The methods have been described in several recent publications and comparison with other methods shows general consistency.
