SUPERNOVAE 2010ji, 2010kq, AND 2010kr
R. J. Foley and R. Chornock, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics,
on behalf of a larger collaboration, report that a spectrum (range 320-830 nm),
obtained on Dec. 10 UT with the Blue Channel Spectrograph on the 6.5-m MMT
telescope, shows that 2010ji (cf. CBET 2528) is a type-II supernova, a few
months after explosion; the absorption minimum of H-alpha is blueshifted by
5200 km/s. SNe 2010kq (cf. CBET 2578) and 2010kr (cf. CBET 2579) are type-Ia
events. Cross-correlation with a library of supernova spectra using the
"Supernova Identification" code (SNID; Blondin and Tonry 2007, Ap.J. 666,
1024) shows the best-fit ages for 2010kq and 2010kr are 1 day before and 23
days after maximum brightness, respectively. SN 2010kq shows evidence for C
II 658.0-nm absorption blueshifted by 11800 km/s, which is a similar velocity
to that found for Si II 635.5-nm (11200 km/s).
