The CfA team also took a spectrum of SN 2003hy on Sept. 18.28 UT, which revealed that it is a type IIn SN without broad components.

The CfA team obtained a spectrum of SN 2003ia on Sept. 19.18 UT, which revealed that it is a type Ia SN about 2 weeks after maximum.

The Carnegie Observatories group took a spectrum of SN 2003ib on Sept. 18.17 UT, which revealed that it is a young type II SN. The host galaxy seems to be indeed a member of Abell 3698.

The Carnegie Observatories team also revealed that it is type Ia supernova about 5 days before maximum on Sept. 18.25 UT.

The Carnegie Observatories team also revealed that it is type Ic supernova about 4 days before maximum on Sept. 18.33 UT.
