SN2003cb 20030207.5 <193:C SCH SN2003cb 20030313.4 179C SCH SN2003cb 20030315.4 179C SCH # SN 2003cb (13:00:33.25, -6:51:09.3 (J2000.0), offset = 10"W, 2"N) is # hosted by NGC 4885, apparently disk type (Sa?) galaxy. The expected # maximum for typical SN Ia is mag about 15.0, though it seems not to # of this case. # Deep Lens Survey also discovered an optical transient with queer # nature. It was below 23.5V on Mar. 5.17, but 0.02 day (half hour) # later it was V=21.9; it was around B=22 for one hour; 2 days later # this object was below 25.0V. It is possibly associated with a faint # galaxy. It is possibly an "orphan GRB afterglow" (See e.g. Totani # and Panaitescu, ApJ, 576, 120 (2002)) .
