2001gn

This supernova was discovered at the time of the research campaign of spring 2001 by instrument CFH12K with the CFHT. It was detected on April 16, on 2001, then confirmed April 20.

Its spectrum (B.5 of Keck. An exposure time of 2h allowed its identification and the measurement of its redshift (1.1) by using the lines of the supernova.

A line which could correspond to a galactic line was observed in the spectrum indicating a shift towards the red of 1.12 in very good agreement with that measured on the spectrum of the supernova.

It was then observed with 5 resumptions out of I and a resumption in Z by the space telescope Hubble starting from its maximum of luminosity (B.7 table ).

Appear B.5: In black, the spectrum of 2001gn. This spectrum was observed the 23 and on April 24, 2001 with the Keck telescope and the spectrograph scale ESI. The time of integration is  $ 2 \times 6100$ seconds distributed over the two nights. The spectrum is compared with the spectra of 1990N with various phases (respectively 7 and 14 days before the maximum in red and blue). To note, the spectrum was smoothed to emphasize the lines characteristic of the supernova (broad lines) to the detriment of the narrow lines.
