Scientific paper

The optical emission from supernovae is primarily driven by the high-energy photons emitted in the decay of 56Ni and 56Co. The most direct means to study this decay process is to observe the hard X-ray and gamma-ray flux. We discuss the interplay between supernova asymmetries and both the emergence time and spectral distribution of this high energy flux. We conclude with a discussion of how this asymmetry may affect calculations of supernova lightcurves.
