Megan Newsome (LCO/UCSB), Yael Dgany (TAU), Iair Arcavi, Daichi Hiramatsu, D. Andrew Howell, Curtis McCully, Estefania Padilla Gonzalez, Craig Pellegrino report/s a classification of object: AT 2019byp
Type: AGNRedshift: 0.045399
Remarks: Our spectrum shows galactic lines of narrow H and O III at z=0.045399, which is matched by the redshift of the host galaxy WISEA J175725.25+265028.4 (2014ApJS..210....9B, value from NED). The long-term variability in the lightcurve (ZTF) and nuclear nature of the transient indicate an AGN.
