Supernova (SN) ejecta can be accelerated to attain relativistic speed byenergetic explosion. Spherically symmetric 1-dimensional simulations showthat the energy distribution of particles in SN ejecta follows a power law(Fields et al. 2002, Nakamura & Shigeyama 2004). To investigate effects ofasphericity, we have constructed a 2-dimensional relativistic hydrodynamiccode using Piecewise Parabolic Method. Axi-symmetric explosion is initiatedby inserting kinetic energy biased in the polar direction. We find that theenergy distribution of matter accelerated by aspherical explosion does notfollow a simple power law. We also investigate the hydrodynamicalinteraction between accelerated ejecta and circumstellar matter comparingwith a self-similar solution obtained for spherical explosion.
