2003IAUC.8051....2F

Filippenko and Chornock add that inspection of CCD spectra, obtained as above on Jan. 7 UT, shows that SN 2002hz (IAUC 8017) is of type Ib, roughly 2 months past maximum brightness and starting to enter the nebular phase. He I lines are clearly present, although their strength is in most cases difficult to judge owing to blending with other lines.
