Scientific paper

On the basis of similar Monte-Carlo algorithms of gamma-ray line transfer applied to the ejected envelope of SN 1987A, as modeled by various authors, explanations and predictions concerning the electromagnetic manifestations of the supernova at various wavelengths are presented and commented. The evolution of the 847 and 1238 keV line intensity, of the hard X-ray flux and of the bolometric luminosity are reasonably accounted for in terms of pure radioactivity up to day about 1000. Complications arise beyond. The importance of observations at low gamma-ray energies (68 and 78 keV) is stressed to clarify the role of Ti-44.
