Dear SN watchers, In [vsnet-campaign-sn 625] (May 24) >SN2003el 20030307.3 <196:C KAI >SN2003el 20030419.3 <190:C KAI >SN2003el 20030522.3 188:C KAI >SN2003el 20030523.3 189:C KAI > ># SN 2003el (13:09:46.20, +28:54:21.6 (J2000.0), offset = 17"W, 3"S) ># is hosted by NGC 5000, a barred-spiral (SB(rs)bc) starburst galaxy. ># The SN is superimposed on the western end of the bar. The expected ># maximum for typical SN Ia is mag about 16.0, though the reported ># magnitudes suggest that it would be a gravitationcal-collapse event. The spectrum by the CfA team taken on May 25 shows that it is type Ic SN near the maximum light.
