Snedden, APO; N. Takanashi and K. Tokita, UoT; K. van der Heyden, SAAO; S. Watters, APO; C. Wheeler, University of Texas; N. Yasuda, UoT; and C. Zheng, SU, on behalf of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey II collaboration, report the discovery of a new supernova (at magnitudes g = 20.0, r = 19.7, and i = 20.0) on images taken with the SDSS 2.5-m telescope at APO by the SDSS observing team on Nov. 26 UT. SN 2006rz is located at R.A. = 3h46m06s.78, Decl. = +0o23'23".1 (equinox 2000.0), essentially coincident with the previously catalogued galaxy SDSS J034606.87+002325.0, an emission-line galaxy with a redshift of 0.0309. J. Eastman, J. L. Prieto, L. Watson, R. Assef, K. Schlesinger, D. DePoy, OSU; and A. Crotts, Columbia University, report that spectroscopic observations with the Hiltner 2.4-m telescope at MDM Observatory on Nov. 30 indicate that 2006rz is a type-Ia supernova that is now (Dec. 5) around maximum light.
