PESSTO, the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey for Transient Objects (see Valenti et al., ATel #4037; http://www.pessto.org ), reports the following supernova classifications.
Targets were supplied by the La Silla-Quest survey (see Hadjiyska et al., ATel #3812),
the Catalina Real-time Transient Survey (http://crts.caltech.edu/) and OGLE-IV (ATel #4495; Wyrzykowski et al. 2012).
All observations were performed on the ESO New Technology Telescope at La Silla on 2013 Dec 24 and 25, using EFOSC2 and Grism 13 (3985-9315A, 18A resolution).
Classifications were done with SNID (Blondin & Tonry, 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024) and GELATO (Harutyunyan et al., 2008, A&A, 488, 383). Classification spectra can be obtained from http://www.pessto.org (via WISeREP).
