«It does not only govern the mass
motions in the supernova core but it also imposes characteristic signatures on the neutrino and gravitational - wave emission, which will be measurable for a future Galactic supernova.
Not exact matches
But not only the spatial distributions of titanium and iron resemble those
in Cas A. Also the total amounts of these elements, their expansion velocities, and the velocity of the neutron star are
in amazing agreement with those of Cas A. «This ability to reproduce basic properties of the observations impressively confirms that Cas A may be the remnant of a neutrino - driven
supernova with its violent gas
motions around the nascent neutron star,» concludes H. - Thomas Janka.
In such cases, only black holes or neutron stars — ultradense leftovers from burned - out
supernovas — could seemingly account for the observed
motions of the stars.
Indeed, observing the
supernova is like watching a nuclear bomb detonate
in extreme slow
motion.

Although absorption
in ionized hydrogen suggests that the SNR is about 13,000 to 16,000 ly (4,000 to 5,000 pc) away (Schwarz et al, 1995), analysis of its optical proper
motion and modelled shock velocity provides a distance of about 7,500 ly (2,300 pc)(more at T. Joseph W. Lazio's Tycho's
Supernova Remnant).
