We simulate shock propagation in a wide range of core-collapsing presuper- 5 novae: from compact WR stars exploding as SNe Ib/c through very extended envelopes of the narrow-line SNe IIn. We find that the same physical phenomenon of radiating 2 shocks can produce outbursts of X-ray radiation (with photon energy 3kT ∼ 1 keV) v lasting only a second in SNe Ib/c, as well as a very high flux of visual light, lasting for 9 months, in SNe IIn. 6 5 2 1 Introduction 1 2 0 Shock waves created at supernova explosions are observed mostly at the stage / of supernova remnants due to their x-ray emission. For supernovae themselves h p shocks are not observed directly: normally the stage of shock break-out through -
