SUPERNOVA IN NGC 5695 (=PSN J14372160+3634018)
Ron Arbour reports the discovery of an apparent supernova in the galaxy
NGC5695 on an unfiltered CCD image taken on 2015 June 10.9526UT during
searches for the UK Nova/Supernova patrol. He used a 0.35-m f/6 Schmidt
Cassegrain Telescope and SXVF H9 CCD camera.
The object was also recorded on several subsequent images to a limiting
unfiltered magnitude of 19.0

Precise position:  14h 37m 21.60s    +36° 34' 01.8" (2000)

Offsets from galaxy:   7" W   3" S

Mag 17.46V  (unfiltered)

The object was not visible on the Digitised Sky Survey POSS II Blue plate or
the POSS II Red plate nor listed on CBAT's Minor Planet Checker.

L. Tomasella et. al. (INAS OAPd) further reports on The Astronomer’s
Telegram 7619 that the Asiago Transient Classification Program relays the
spectroscopic classification of PSN J14372160+3634018 in NGC 5695 following
the posting on CBAT WWW by Ron Arbour. The observation was performed with
the Asiago 1.82 m Copernico Telescope (+AFOSC; range 340-820 nm; resolution
1.4 nm).   
This revealed that on June 11.04UT the type was II in an early phase v=4225
km/a (RC3). There was a blue featureless continuum, with a broad and shallow
bump at the Halpha position (FWHM ~ 9000 km/s). Classification was done with
GELATO (Harutyunyan et al. 2008, A&A, 488, 383). The Asiago classification
spectra are posted at the website http://sngroup.oapd.inaf.it.

Congratulations to Ron on the discovery of this further supernova.
