Supernova effects on Server Sky and Stady Shell

The Sun's absolute bolometric (all band) magnitude is +4.74, 3.828e26 W, so an absolute magnitude of zero is 3.013e28 W.

Neutrinos: "1 light year of lead" is 9.5e15 m times 11,000 kg/m3, or 1e20 kg/m2. In the pre-supernova silicon-burning phase, core density is 3e7 g/cm3 or 3e10 kg/m3, so a 3 million kilometer column of core would absorb a substantial fraction of neutrinos.


AL26

The 1.8 MeV gamma emission of 26Al decay to 26Mn tells us about galactic frequency of Type II supernovae, about 2 per century , estimated from the gamma emissions from the 26Al around us, about 2.8 solar masses in the galaxy (5.6e30 kg). One supernova produces 2.5e26 kg of 26Al. The half life of 26Al is 717 ky, so the decay rate is 3e-14 per second, or 7e11 decays/kg-s, or 0.2 W/kg. Assuming 0.04 c radial velocity, and isotropic deposition at a distance of 100 light years (9.4605e17m) 2500 years later (0.25% has decayed), the deposited material density is 2.2e-11 kg/m2, the radioactivity is 4e-12 W/m2 or 7.4 MeV/m2-s or about 4 decays per second. Not much.

At stadyshell distance from the sun, there will be some distortion of the shell density due to the solar magnetic field, which will deflect the beam somewhat.
