Sebastian Gomez, Peter Blanchard, Matt Nicholl, Edo Berger report/s a classification of object: SN 2016iet
Type: SN IRedshift: 0.0676
Remarks: Spectrum taken with the IMACS spectrograph revealed strong calcium and oxygen features, weak Si features, and no evidence for H or He lines, which in principle leads to a Type Ic designation. However, this SN does not resemble any typical Type Ic SNe, and we, therefore, adopt a general classification of a Type I SN.
The following Classification spectrum was provided:
Obsdate: 2017-04-30 00:00:00
Instrument: IMACS
Telescope: Walter Baade Magellan 6.5-m telescope (LCO)
