Abstract
The connection between gamma ray bursts and supernovae is studied using a temperature-dependent vacuum model. A harmonically bound particle–antiparticle system is consistent with both Hawking radiation and Casimir effect, therefore, the Maxwell–Sellmeier model correlates the speed of light to temperature. According to quantum field theory, Lorentz invariance is violated only for temperatures larger than [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]K. Introducing in the temperature distribution of a 2D simulation for a type Ia supernova the speed of light temperature dependence proposed in this paper, results a speed of light distribution. A theoretical snapshot of this distribution at an arbitrary distance is consistent with photon photo finish resulted from experiments. Variable speed of light shows that supernova could be accompanied by gamma-ray bursts.
