Jacob Wise (LJMU), K-Ryan Hinds (LJMU), Daniel Perley (LJMU), Aleksandra Bochenek (LJMU) report/s a classification of object: SN 2024gqu
Type: SN IaRedshift: 0.076
Remarks: Spectrum is well fit by SN Ia template spectra at z=0.076±0.003. The spectrum's weak Si II, and strong Fe III absorption combined with its high luminousity (M<-19.5 at peak), suggest that this could be a SN Ia-91T. However our spectral fits could not definitively constrain it to this subclass. Classification performed using Next Generation Superfit (NGSF, Goldwasser et al. 2022).
The following Classification spectrum was provided:
