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 ATLAS survey (Smith et al. 2020 2020PASP..132h5002S) and the Zwicky Transient Facility ZTF (Bellm et al. 2019 2019PASP..131a8002B) - data stream processed through the Lasair broker (Williams et al. 2024 2024RASTI...3..362W) and by the ALeRCE broker (Forster et al. 2020 2021AJ....161..242F).
Observations were performed on the ESO New Technology Telescope (NTT) at La Silla on the night of 2026 September 06, using EFOSC2 and Grism 11 (3380-7520A, 15.8A resolution). Classifications were done using SNID (Blondin & Tonry 2007 2007ApJ...666.1024B).
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.
