The basic properties of galactic supernovae (SNs) are examined on the basis of SN models with slow energy pumping. The effect of the initial structure of a model, the envelope mass, and the intensity of energy pumping on the characteristics of a SN explosion is considered, and numerical results are obtained by integration of a set of spherically symmetric hydrodynamic equations with radiative heat conductivity taken into account. Specific results are discussed for the remnants of the galactic type I SNs 1006, 1054, 1572, and 1604. In particular, it is shown that the unique properties of the Crab Nebula and of SN 1054 can easily be explained by a peculiar feature of the SN explosion, viz., a relatively low effective intensity of energy pumping. Envelope masses of 0.3 to 0.7 solar mass are estimated for type I SNs, and the masses of galactic type I SNRs are suggested to be about 0.2 to 0.3 solar mass. It is concluded that SN 1054 had an apparent visual magnitude of approximately -4.0 and an absolute visual magnitude of about -16.5 maximum luminosity.
