Supernova - Supernova - Type I supernovae: Type I supernovae can be divided into three subgroups—Ia, Ib, and Ic—on the basis of their spectra. They are classified as supernova I and II, depending on their solar luminosities. (What kind of companion star is best suited to produce Type Ia supernovae is hotly debated.) Astronomer Johannes Kepler started observing the supernova on 17 th October 1607 and hence, it is named as SN 1604. The latest observed supernova was in Andromeda Galaxy in 1885 and is known as S Andromedae. 26. Type 1a supernova 1994D exploded near the outskirts of galaxy NGC 4526. Type I supernova has a peaked maxima (about 10 billion luminosities) and then gradually disappears. In supernova: Type II supernovae. Type Ia. These result from some binary star systems in which a carbon-oxygen white dwarf is accreting matter from a companion. It is the largest explosion that takes place in space. A supernova is a large explosion that takes place at the end of a star's life cycle.
A supernova is the explosion of a star. (Grades 5-8) series.
