Abstract

AbstractThe observations of the narrow UV and optical emission lines from SN 1987A are modelled as reprocessed radiation in a shell around the supernova, heated and ionized by the soft X-ray and EUV radiation at the shock breakout. Constraints on the early soft X-ray burst are discussed, as well as the physical conditions and abundances in the shell.
