The Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT) Unbiased Transient Survey (NUTS; ATel #8992) reports the spectroscopic
classification of ATLAS17lcs (SN 2017guv) and ASASSN-17mq (AT 2017gvo) in host galaxies 2MASX J19132225-1648031 and CGCG 225-050, respectively.
The candidates were discovered by the ATLAS survey, see Tonry et al. (2011, PASP, 123, 58) and Tonry et al. (ATel #8680) and the All Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae ASAS-SN (see Shappee et al. 2014, ApJ, 788, 48 and http://www.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/~assassin/index.shtml ).
The observations were performed with the 2.56 m Nordic Optical Telescope
equipped with ALFOSC (range 350-950 nm; resolution 1.6 nm FWHM).
Survey Name | IAU Name | Discovery (UT) | Discovery mag | Observation (UT) | Redshift | Type | Phase | Notes
ATLAS17lcs | SN 2017guv | 2017-09-15.31 | 17.6 | 2017-09-28.85 | 0.023806 | Ia | +3d | (1)
ASASSN-17mq | AT 2017gvo | 2017-09-17.25 | 17.5 | 2017-09-28.87 | 0.054831 | galaxy | â- | (2)
(1) The best match using SNID is type Ia supernova SN 2004eo at phase ~3 days, and the best-fit SN redshift is consistent with the host redshift via NED (z_host = 0.023806).
(2) The spectrum is consistent with a galaxy at the host redshift (z_host = 0.054831) according to NED.
Classifications were performed using SNID (Blondin and Tonry 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024) tools. Calibrated spectra and additional information can be retrieved in the IAU Transient Name Server.
