Supernova 2011hl

Report the discovery of an apparent supernova in unfiltered Catalina Sky Survey (CSS) images: SN 2011 UT R.A. (2000.0) Decl. Mag. Offset 2011hl Sep. 26.30 0 01 55.69 + 6 52 35.9 19.4 52".2 W, 18".5 S Further CSS magnitudes for 2011hl: July 2.43 UT, [20.3; Sept. 18.45, 20.1; Sept 19.32, 20.0. L. Tomasella, S. Valenti, A. Pastorello, M. Fiaschi, anD S. Benetti, Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica, Osservatorio Astronomico di Padova, on behalf of a larger collaboration, report that a low-S/N spectrogram of 2011hl was obtained on Oct. 30.87 UT with the Ekar-Copernico 1.82-m telescope (+ AFOSC; range 380-820 nm; resolution 2.2 nm). Cross-correlation with a library of supernova spectra using the "Supernova Identification" code (SNID; Blondin and Tonry 2007, Ap.J. 666, 1024) suggests that 2011hl is a type-Ia supernova at z = 0.08, two months after maximum....
