Jacob Wise (LJMU), Daniel Perley (LJMU), K-Ryan Hinds (LJMU), Aleksandra Bochenek (LJMU), Zoe McGrath (LJMU) report/s a classification of object: SN 2024adfq
Type: SLSN-IRedshift: 0.2285
Remarks: Spectrum is well fit by SLSN-I template spectra from previously classified events at a redshift of z = 0.2285 ± 0.0025. We also find a good-fit to the Super-Chandrasekhar event 2012dn, however the template spectrum is at a phase of -13 whilst 2024adfq appears to be at peak. The long rise time of ~50 days to peak followed by a plateau is further evidence of it being a SLSN-I rather than a peculiar Ia. Classification performed using Next Generation Superfit (NGSF, Goldwasser et al. 2022).
The following Classification spectrum was provided:
