We report the following classification from spectroscopic observations with the Kast spectrograph on the Lick Shane telescope. The target was supplied by ATLAS. Observations were made on 2022 November 21 UT. Classification was performed with SNID (Blondin & Tonry, 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024).
Name | IAU Name | RA (J2000) | Dec (J2000) | z | Type | Phase | Notes
ATLAS22bmfh | 2022aapl | 02:34:40.568 | -26:13:46.57 | 0.0575 | Ia | -6 | (1)
Notes:
When the redshift is given to 2 decimal places, it is derived from the SN spectrum. Otherwise, the redshift is determined from the host galaxy.
(1) We measure an Si 6355 velocity of -12,000 km/s.
