Notes. The table also includes the ratio of shocked to unshocked masses. The last three columns provide, for comparison, the shocked mass values inferred from Chandra data analysis of Cas A (Hwang & Laming 2012) and the unshocked mass values inferred from Spitzer data analysis (Laming & Temim 2020). (a) Data from Hwang & Laming (2012); each element is presented with two values, corresponding to assumed filling factors based on density spike thickness of 2.5′′ and 5′′. (b)Data from Laming & Temim (2020). (c) The ejecta mass of 44Ti is overestimated by a factor 10–20 due to a reduced network in the original SN model, which included only 9 of 13 α nuclei up to 56Ni (see Wongwathanarat et al. 2017). (d)The values reported consider the total Fe masses from incomplete Si burning (FeSi) plus from complete Si burning and/or α-rich freezout (Feα) (Hwang & Laming 2012). (e)The tracer nucleus 56X represents Fe-group species synthesized in neutron-rich environments as, for instance, in neutrino-heated ejecta (see Wongwathanarat et al. 2017). The table lists the mass of 56Fe, calculated as MFe + 0.5 MX, and the mass of 56X, estimated as 0.5 MX.
