2011CBET.2888....2M

G. H. Marion, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA), on behalf of the CfA Supernova Group, reports that a spectrum (range 340-740 nm) of 2011hh was obtained on Oct. 28 UT by P. Berlind with the F. L. Whipple Observatory 1.5-m telescope (+ FAST). Cross-correlation with a library of supernova spectra using the "Supernova Identification" code (SNID; Blondin and Tonry 2007, Ap.J. 666, 1024) shows that the object is a type-Ia supernova about three weeks after maximum light. A good fit is found to the template of the normal type-Ia supernova 2002cr at +20 days and z = 0.015.
