These are the "May" supernovae. Pierre or another one of the FROGS:
please let me know if I've left off a candidate that shouldn't be left
off!
VLT is going to attempt T02-015 and/or C02-031 tonight. Is Gemini observing tonight? Isobel, what targets did you give them?
For all of these candidates, see sntrak for more info.
CONFIRMED SUPERNOVAE
====================
Two supernovae are confirmed with Gemini:
name name2 RA2000 Dec2000 Prio Mag ApSig %INC
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
T02-037 Elindil 15:46:57.0 +08:12:36.6 8 22.3 8.8 46 z=0.49
S02-064 13:24:06.3 +27:42:10.0 8 22.8 111.1 107 z=0.56?
Both of these are on the list I sent to Javier for TNG tonight.
For beginning-of-night candidates, it sounds like we won't do anything
with them. See my previous candidate E-mail for information about
candidates at RA 10h. I will assume they wlil be ignored unless we want
to try to rescue one or two of them; there are a couple of good looking
potential low-z supernovae there.
END-OF-NIGHT CANDIDATES

MIDDLE-OF-NIGHT CANDIDATES (In the "deep" field)
================================================
(S02-xxx magnitudes are probably all i' AB magnitudes. If the
Ap.Sig and %INC are zero, the magnitudes come from Naoki; otherwise,
they come from Alex C.)
(S02-xxx supernovae marked with * were found in the SDF flanking
fields by both Naoki and somebody in the USA.)

features. Isobel tenatively redshifted the galaxy at z=0.48.
** Greg's previous note about candidates said this one had a
"weird lightcurve" and ranked it down.
