R. Covarrubias, Observatories of the Carnegie Institution of Washington and Anglo-Australian Observatory; and S. Ryder, Anglo-Australian Observatory, report a spectroscopic observation (range 380-1000 nm) of SN 2009jy (cf. CBET 1983) obtained on Nov. 2.35 UT with the Magellan II Clay telescope (+ MagE) at Las Campanas Observatory, which shows that this is a type-Ic supernova. Cross-correlation with a library of supernova spectra, using the "Supernova Identification" code (SNID; Blondin and Tonry, 2007, Ap.J. 666, 1024), gives a good match to a type-Ic supernova at least one month, and possibly up to two months, old.
