Supernovae 2008du and 2008dw.

Abstract (from CDS):

T. N. Steele, R. Mostardi, C. V. Griffith, and A. V. Filippenko, University of California, Berkeley, report that inspection of CCD spectra (range 330-1000 nm), obtained on July 4 UT with the 3-m Shane reflector (+ Kast) at Lick Observatory, shows that 2008du (CBET 1423) is a type-Ic supernova, near maximum brightness. SN 2008dw (CBET 1426) is a type-II supernova, also near maximum brightness. The emission component of H-alpha greatly dominates over the absorption component, though the other members of the hydrogen Balmer series have more typical P-Cyg profiles.
