One model of these events was solved by using a Monte Carlo gamma ray deposition scheme and was posited by Hoflich and Kharkov. The Phillips relation allows them to be used as standard candles, and one model to explain them relies on a 3 second deflagration phase, followed by a period in which a layer of silicon appears. Their light curves contain a high peak corresponding to a nickel-decaying stage, followed by a stage dominated by cobalt decay. These events are powered by carbon detonation during a convective phase, and unlike their counterparts, they lack hydrogen lines in their spectra. Characterized by the conversion of the body in question into iron and usually occurring in binary systems, for 10 points, name these events in which a carbon-oxygen white dwarf explodes, examples of which include 1987A.
