Same as Figure 6 but for the most energetic case, ( L ν0, 52, t d ) = (2.2, 5.0), among the three examples shown in Figure 2. The diagnostic energy with nuclear burning is about 8.0 × 10 50 erg at t pb = 465 ms and still keeps rising. The net energy released via nuclear reactions at this time is ~3.0 × 10 50 erg, occupying a significant fraction (~ 40%) of the diagnostic energy. For the model without nuclear burning, the diagnostic energy is ~0.8 × 10 50 erg at that time and closely saturates to be E dia ~ 2.3 × 10 50 erg afterward.
