4 SN 1987A: Evidence for H and 56 Ni Mixing The [Ni II] 6.64 µm profile at day 640 gives v FWHM = 3100 km s 1 (Colgan et al. 1994). Not flat-topped Hα profile on day 498 (Phillips et al. 1990) implies that there is no cavity free of hydrogen at zero velocity.

17 Two Possible Solutions of The Problem A rapid rotation of Fe core producing more extent of Ni mixing. A binary evolution scenario for the BSG Sanduleak Credit: (ESA/STScI), HST, NASA The triple-ring system was explained by Morris & Podsiadlowski (2009) in the scenario of a binary merger model.

19 Bolometric Light Curves The total 56 Ni mass is scaled to fit the observed luminosity in the radioactive tail.

20 Light Curves: Artificial Mixing The total 56 Ni mass is scaled to fit the observed luminosity in the radioactive tail.

21 Summary 3D neutrino-driven explosion simulations of SN 1987A are able to synthesize the 56 Ni mass estimated from the observed luminosity in the radioactive tail. The extent of outward 56 Ni mixing in the framework of the 3D simulations decreases with He-core masses of the corresponding progenitor models. In 3D simulations only the model with He-core mass of 4 M yields a maximum velocity of the bulk of 56 Ni consistent with SN 1987A observations. In a single star scenario Sk seems to require a progenitor with a 6 M He core, and a 4 M He core is not able to explain the colorluminosity properties before collapse. Rapid rotation of the iron core might lead to more mixing. Investigations are needed. Binary progenitor models with 4 M He cores can account for the colorluminosity properties of Sk (see A. Menon s talk). But do they yield the extent of mixing to explain SN 1987A observations? Inward hydrogen mixing leads to minimum velocities of H-rich matter of less than 100 km s 1 in a good agreement with SN 1987A observations. Future 3D neutrino-driven explosion simulations on the basis of binary merger models of Menon & Heger (2017) for the progenitor of SN 1987A.
