SN 2002bf
SN 2002bf was discovered by the LOTOSS team in the image taken on February
22 (17.0mag) and 24 (16.6mag). The host galaxy = CGCG 266-031 is a barred-spiral
galaxy. The expected maximum for typical SN Ia is mag about 16.6 (vsnet-campaign-sn
357). This supernova was of type Ia at maximum on Mar 6-7 UT, with
somewhat high expansion velocity (CfA team and UCB-Keck team). Such
high velocity is observed among the luminous SNe Ia (vsnet-campaign-sn
370).
