2001gy

This supernova was discovered at the time of countryside SCP 2001 thanks to instrument MOSAICII of the CTIO. It was discovered on April 18, then confirmed on April 20.

Its spectral identification and the measurement of its redshift (0.511) was obtained thanks to instrument FORS1 of the VLT (B.17 figure ).

This supernova was discovered before its maximum of luminosity and gained from 4 points from space follow-up in R and I, as well as three points in R and of a point out of I obtained with the instruments of the WHT B.23 ).

Appear B.17: In blue, the spectrum of 2001gy. This spectrum was obtained telescope VLT and instrument FORS1 on April 21. The duration is 2400 seconds. The shift towards the red was obtained while measuring on the lines of the galaxy host. In black, the spectrum of the close supernova 1990N observed 7 days before the maximum. To note, the spectrum of 2001gy was smoothed by using a median filter of 5 Å.
