Abstract:
This report includes classifications of 5 Type Ia's (including one Type Ia 91T-like), 2 Type II's (including one Type IIn), 1 Type Ic, 1 Type Ib/c and 1 Galactic CV. The Type Ia SN2021wdx was already classified earlier today by the Zwicky Transient Facility (TNS Classification Report No. 10613).

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).

Observations were performed on the ESO New Technology Telescope (NTT) at La Silla on the night of 2021 August 27, using EFOSC2 and Grism 13 (3985-9315A, 18A resolution). Classifications were done using SNID (Blondin & Tonry 2007 2007ApJ...666.1024B) and GELATO (Harutyunyan et al. 2008 2008A&A...488..383H) and Superfit (Howell et al. 2005 2005ApJ...634.1190H).

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.
