Brandt ci at. have shown that consistency in the combined observations of the Gum Nebula requires a giant H ii region, presumably formed by the Vela X supernova explosion. Mouison and Sartori had concluded on the basis of their He ii fluorescence theory of Type I supernovae that a giant H ii region would be formed as result of the ultraviolet burst. (Bottcher ci at., by integrating over the light curve, expect a smaller H ii region.) We present here in brief some consequences of the fluorescence model as illustrated by the Vela X and the Tycho supernovae. We conclude …
