SUPERNOVA 2009mu IN ESO 374-3
     M. Stritzinger, Las Campanas Observatory; G. Folatelli, Universidad de
Chile; and G. Pignata, Universidad Andres Bello, on behalf of the Millennium
Center for Supernova Science, report that they obtained an optical spectrum of
2009mu (cf. CBET 2091) on Jan. 6.1 UT with the Gemini (+ GMOS) telescope.  The
spectrum reveals that 2009mu is a type-IIb supernova around a hundred days or
more past maximum.
