High energy emission from supernovae provide a direct window into the quantity and distribution of radioactive elements produced in these explosions. Combining supernova explosion calculations with 3D Monte Carlo γ-ray transport, I have studied the effect mixing and asymmetries have on the hard X-ray and γ-ray spectra. With sufficient spectral resolution, the emission line profiles from nickel decay have enough information to distinguish between spherical and mildly asymmetric supernova explosions.
