Abstract:
This report includes classifications of 6 SNe Ia, 1 SN IIn, 1 CV, and 1 He nova.

ePESSTO+, the advanced Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey for Transient Objects (Smartt et al. 2015; 2015A&A...579A..40S), reports the following supernova classifications.

Targets were supplied by the Pan-STARRS Survey for Transients (Chambers et al. 2016; 2016arXiv161205560C), the ATLAS survey (Smith et al. 2020; 2020arXiv200309052S), the Zwicky Transient Facility ZTF (Bellm et al. 2019; 2019PASP..131a8002B) - data stream processed through the Lasair broker (Smith, Williams, Young et al. 2019; 2019RNAAS...3a..26S) and by the ALeRCE broker (Forster et al. 2020; https://arxiv.org/abs/2008.03303), the ESA Gaia Photometric Science Alerts Team DPAC and by the Brazilian Transient Search team.

Observations were performed on the ESO New Technology Telescope (NTT) at La Silla on the night of 2021 April 16, using EFOSC2 and Grism 13 (3985-9315Å, 18Å resolution). Classifications were done using SNID (Blondin & Tonry 2007; 2007ApJ...666.1024B) and GELATO (Harutyunyan et al. 2008; 2008A&A...488..383H).

The classification spectra and additional details can be obtained from http://www.pessto.org (via WISeREP) and the IAU Transient Name Server.

The classified objects are listed in the Related Objects table below.
