Abstract (from CDS):
N. Morrell, Las Campanas Observatory; and G. Pignata, Universidad Andres Bello, on behalf of the Millenium Center for Supernova Science and the Carnegie Supernova Project collaboration, write that on Sept. 13.07 UT they obtained an optical spectrogram (range 380-920 nm) of PSN J22030299-2231010 = SN 2012ev with the du Pont telescope (+ WFCCD) at Las Campanas Observatory, which reveals this is a type-Ia supernova approximately one week after maximum brightness. Cross-correlation with a library of supernova spectra using the Supernova Identification tool (SNID; Blondin and Tonry 2007, Ap.J. 666, 1024) suggests that 2012ev is a normal type-Ia supernova, very similar to SN 1998co at seven days after maximum light. Adopting for the host galaxy (2MASX J22030334-2231004) a recession velocity of 21952 km/s (Jones et al. 2009, The 6dF Galaxy Survey Data Release 3; via NED), the minimum of the Si II 635.5-nm absorption appears to be blueshifted by 10450 km/s.
