Arizona) DLT40 SN IIn 0.00048 1 DLT40 Using GELATO (Harutyunyan et al., 2008, A&A, 488, 383; gelato.tng.iac.es), we find the best fit to SN IIn/LBV. The SNIIn/LBV is likely in the host-galaxy NGC 300 (z = 0.00048; NED value). Taken at Gemini-S using GMOS. At the distance of NGC300 (distance modulus of 25.83; NED value) the object’s magnitude Mr=-8.5 is more consistent with an LBV (or very young SN IIn).

A note on the Light Curves date range and Discovery Magnitude

Our software recognized a cosmic ray from december of 2016 as the earliest detection for this transient. The actual last non detection is ~2019-9-26.2. Our actual discovery mag is at 17.38
