Marques-Chaves (Univ. of Geneva), C. M. B. Omand (The Oskar Klein Centre), and R. Shirley (Univ. of Southampton) on behalf of the SGLF SLSN group report/s a classification of object: SN 2022abtm

Type: SLSN-I
Redshift: 0.308

Remarks: AT 2022abtm was selected for LT SPRAT spectroscopy as a SLSN candidate using the ZTF public alerts, ATLAS forced photometry, the ALeRCE light curve classification, and our SGLF ZTF database and filters. It was also reported as a SLSN candidate by Chen et al. (AstroNote 2022-265). The classification and redshift were determined from our LT SPRAT spectrum using SNID (S. Blondin & J. L. Tonry 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024), with good matches to several SLSNe-I at z = 0.306-0.308 at about 9 days before maximum light. No host galaxy is visible on the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys images. The current absolute magnitude after correction for interstellar extinction is about Mg = -22, Mr = -22.
