The Carnegie Supernova Project reports the spectroscopic classification of LSQ15aae using an optical spectrum obtained with the Nordic Optical Telescope (+Alfosc). The target was supplied by the La Silla-Quest survey (Hadjiyska et al., ATel #3812).
Name | RA | DEC | Disc. date | Spec. date | Tele+Inst | Type |z | Phase |
LSQ15aae | 16 30 15.70 | +05 55 58.73 | 2015 03 19 | 2015 03 30 | NOT+ALFOSC | Ia-91T |0.05 | Before max |
Notes: Best SNID (Blondin & Tonry, 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024) fits to the spectra of several 1991T-like SNe Ia (e.g., SN 2001eh) before maximum light.
