[vsnet-campaign-sn 370] spectral types of recent SNe



Dear SN watchers,

  IAUC 7846 informed the spectral types of recent SNe.

SN 2002bf: 

In [vsnet-campaign-sn 357]:
># The host galaxy of SN 2002bf = CGCG 266-031 is a barred-spiral
># (SB(r)b:) galaxy.  The expected maximum for typical SN Ia is mag
># about 16.6.

  It is of type Ia at maximum on Mar 6-7 UT, with somewhat high
expansion velocity (CfA team and UCB-Keck team).  Such high velocity
are observed among the luminous SNe Ia.  The observation has not
reported other than the discovery (166:C on Feb. 24.3 UT).

SN 2002bi:

In [vsnet-campaign-sn 358]:
># The host of SN 2002bi is a spiral or irregular (Sdm:) galaxy UGC
># 8527.  The expected maximum for typical SN Ia is mag about 16.6.
># SN locates quite near to the nucleus. 

  It is also of type Ia, but roughly 1 month past maximum on Mar. 7
(UCB - Keck team).  

SN 2002bk:

In [vsnet-obs 38800]:
>SN2002bk  20020111.5  <195C  PAL
>SN2002bk  20020209.28  185C  PAL
>SN2002bk  20020303.3   191C  PAL

  It is again of type Ia, about 5 weeks past maximum on Mar. 7 (the
same observers).  The recession velocity of the host galaxy was also
measured as 17000 km/s.

Sincerely Yours,
Hitoshi Yamaoka, Kyushu Univ., Japan
