Scientific paper

The Nearby Supernova Factory reports its discovery of a young, blue, Type Ia supernova (J2000.0 coordinates RA 13:29:12.82 DEC 11:16:20.60) in UGC 8472 (z = 0.0221, SDSS DR6) using images taken May 14 UTC with the QUEST-II camera on the Palomar Oschin 48-inch telescope, operated by the Palomar-QUEST Consortium. Spectra (range 320-1000 nm) obtained May 16 and 18 UTC with the SuperNova Integral Field Spectrograph on the University of Hawaii 2.2-meter telescope reveal it to be a Type Ia SN with a very blue continuum, indicative of a SN at a week or more before maximum.
