SUPERNOVA 2007P IN ESO 566-G36
S. Blondin, M. Modjaz, R. Kirshner, and P. Challis, Harvard-Smithsonian
Center for Astrophysics, report that a spectrum (range 350-740 nm) of 2007P
(cf. CBET 819), obtained on Jan. 26.42 UT by M. Calkins with the F. L.
Whipple Observatory 1.5-m telescope (+ FAST), shows it to be most probably a
young type-II supernova. The spectrum consists of a featureless and blue
continuum and is similar to an early spectrum of SN 1993J (Matheson et al.
2000, A.J. 120, 1487). The spectrum can be viewed at the following URL:
