dc.description.abstractReport the discovery of an apparent supernova in public images from the Catalina Sky Survey (CSS). SN 2011 UT R.A. (2000.0) Decl. Mag. Offset 2011ho Oct. 28.49 11 44 12.95 +33 30 58.1 18.7 12".8 W, 5".8 N This variable was designated PSN J11441295+3330581 when it was posted on the Central Bureau's TOCP webpage and is here designated SN 2011ho based on the spectroscopic confirmation reported below. Further unfiltered CCD magnitudes for 2011ho: June 11.21 UT, [19.0 (CSS); Oct. 30.495, 18.3 (Joseph Brimacombe, Cairns, Australia; position end figures 13s.10, 59".2; image posted at website URL http://www.flickr.com/photos/43846774@N02/6297040020/). R. J. Foley, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics; and D. Kasen and A. V. Filippenko, University of California, Berkeley, report that a CCD spectrum (range 310-1020 nm), obtained on Oct. 31 UT with the Keck I 10-m telescope (+ LRIS), shows that PSN J11441295+3330581 = SN 2011ho is a type-Ia supernova near maximum brightness. The spectrum exhibits a large Si II 597.2-nm/635.5-nm ratio, indicating a cooler photosphere and a lower luminosity. The spectrum is similar to that of SN 1986G at -3 days (Phillips et al. 1987, PASP 99, 592), but it also resembles spectra of the more typical type-Ia supernovae 1992A and 2004eo at a similar epoch. After removing the recession velocity of 9520 km/s (obtained from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey), the minimum of the Si II 635.5-nm feature is blueshifted by 11700 km/s. G. H. Marion, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA), on behalf of the CfA Supernova Group, reports that a spectrum (range 340-740 nm) of PSN J11441295+3330581 = 2011ho was obtained on Nov. 3 UT by P. Berlind with the F. L. Whipple Observatory 1.5-m telescope (+ FAST). Cross-correlation with a library of supernova spectra using the "Supernova Identification" code (SNID; Blondin and Tonry 2007, Ap.J. 666, 1024) shows that 2011ho is a 1991bg-like type-Ia supernova near maximum light. Good fits can be found to several templates of normal and 1991bg-like type-Ia supernovae within three days of maximum. The presence of a strong feature from Si II 597.2-nm and the reported brightness of 2011ho are consistent with a subluminous, or 1991bg-like, type-Ia supernova. Using an estimated redshift of z = 0.031829 for NGC 3847 as reported in NED (de Vaucouleurs et al. 1991, RC3.9C), the velocity of the Si II 635.5-nm and 597.2-nm features are estimated to be 10700 km/s and 10500 km/s, respectively....
