Subject: peculiar SN Ic 2003id IAUC 8228 informed about SN 2003id. >># SN 2003id (2:21:35.70, -5:31:51.0 (J2000.0), offset = 11"W, 35"S) is >># hosted by NGC 895, a nearby spiral (SA(s)cd) galaxy. The expected >># maximum for typical SN Ia is mag about 14.2, so it seems to be a >># gravitational-collapsed event and/or absorbed SN. > > The Carnegie Observatories team also revealed that it is type Ic >supernova about 4 days before maximum on Sept. 18.33 UT. The Carnegue Observatories team continue to monitor SN 2003id. It has strong unidentified absorption lines, and the expansion velocity seems to be quite large for the one-month old SN. The light curve is also peculiar; further observation is required. SN2003id 20030919.0 170:V LCO SN2003id 20030925.0 172:V LCO SN2003id 20031003.0 173:V LCO SN2003id 20031016.0 186V LCO
