The authors infer from spectroscopy that the recently emphasized Type I supernova subclass, Type Ib, ejects a mixture of helium and iron at high velocity (≡3000 - 30,000 km s-1), followed by oxygen and other elements of intermediate mass at low velocity (<3000 km s-1). It is speculated that a Type Ib supernova arises from an off-center point detonation in a white dwarf that accretes matter at low efficiency from the wind of a red-giant binary companion.
