N. Erasmus (South African Astronomical Observatory, Stellenbosch University), D. Cunnama (South African Astronomical Observatory), S. Potter (South African Astronomical Observatory, University of Johannesburg), M. Nicholl (QUB) report/s a classification of object: SN 2024adrd

Type: SN Ia
Redshift: 0.03

Remarks: Spectral template matching using NGSF (D. A. Howell et al. 2005 and S. Goldwasser et al. 2022) shows a good match with a Type Ia Supernova. The broad-featured silicon absorption line around 6300 Å identified visually also suggests a Type Ia. The reported redshift is estimated from the NGSF fit.
