Abstract (from CDS):

As part of the 2011 Advanced Teen Astronomy Camp (http://www.astronomycamp.org), we obtained a low dispersion optical spectrum

(range 370-690 nm) of PSN J19583553+0236163 in UGC 11501 with the 2.3m Bok telescope (+ Boller & Chivens spectrograph) at Steward Observatory, on 2011 June 23 UT. Cross-correlation with a library of supernova spectra using the Supernova Identification code (SNID; Blondin and Tonry 2007, Ap.J. 666, 1024) shows it to be a type-Ia supernova of the 91T-like sub-class several days

before maximum light; good matches are obtained with pre-maximum (-6.4 ± 2.7 days) template spectra of SN 1991T, SN 1997br, and SN 1999aa. Using the NED redshift of z=0.025 for UGC 11501, the velocity of the (weak) Si II 635.5-nm

feature is approximately 10,100 km/s.
