Spectra (range 350-760 nm) of supernovae ASASSN-15ik (ATel #7491 )
and ASASSN-15ik (Atel #7491) were obtained on May 11, 2015 UT with
the F. L. Whipple Observatory
1.5-m telescope (+ FAST). The table below shows the results from
Cross-correlation with a library of supernova spectra using the
"Supernova Identification" code (SNID; Blondin and Tonry 2007,
Ap.J. 666, 1024)
Name | RA | DEC | epoch |SNID result | phase |
