The thermal X-ray emission from SN 1987A may be enhanced to a detectable level when the blast shock hits the circumstellar medium which has formed in the red-supergiant stage of the progenitor.
The X-ray spectrum of Tycho observed with the satellite Tenma can be explained approximately within the context of a carbon deflagration model for Type la supernovae, if the ejecta are assumed to be mixed partially.
