Multi-shell modeling shows outward 56Ni mixing produces faster brighter rises and biases one-zone fits to lower ejecta mass and higher nickel fraction, while r-process signatures in collapsars depend on placement, distribution, and viewing angle rather than always showing NIR excess.

Signatures of $^{56}$Ni Mixing and Neutron-rich Ejecta in Supernovae
Multi-shell modeling shows outward 56Ni mixing produces faster brighter rises and biases one-zone fits to lower ejecta mass and higher nickel fraction, while r-process signatures in collapsars depend on placement, distribution, and viewing angle rather than always showing NIR excess.
