    Dear Tony, Arial, Greg, Saul, and all,

    I revised the SCP names. I also fixed the number of the SNe
    in the first paragraph (29->30). Also we just write
    "30 supernovae", not "possible 30 supernovae" following
    Saul's suggestion.

    I also change type of SuF02-065 from Ia to Ia?, since light curve
    is quite flat as an SNIa.

    Greg, at the last video meeting, I thought, we agreed that we will discuss
    (at least) 081 and 012 (z~1.3/1.5) in a paper, and won't mention about
    redshift. So I put them to the 2nd category (no redshift and no type).
    But it is true that the 2nd category is not homogeneous, since we have
    spectrum information for some of them.

    The problem is that if we add information to some of those
    in the 2nd category, the rest may be regarded as not convincing as SNe.

    Maybe we can move 012 back to the first category.

    This is, of course, more impressive. High-Z team reported a SN at z=1.3
    (no type) a while ago.

    It depends on how confident we are in the redshift (1.3 or 1.5) for 012.
    Do you think we can move?

    I would like to discuss about this at the meeting soon.

    Anyway the draft version 4 is attached below.

    Cheers,

      M. Doi, Univ. of Tokyo, on behalf of the Supernova Cosmology
    Project(cf. IAUC 7971, plus B. Lee, R. Vogel and V. Stanishev) and
    the Subaru high-redshift supernova search group (N. Yasuda,
    N. Kashikawa, K. Motohara, T. Morokuma, K.Sekiguchi, G. Kosugi,
    H. Furusawa, Y. Komiyama, T. Takata, M. Ouchi, Y. Ohyama, and
    Subaru Observatory SXDS Project members), reports the discovery of
    30 supernovae found with Subaru telescope +prime-focus Suprime-Cam
    in SDSS i' band. Reference images were taken on Sep. 30 and Oct.1,
    2002. The limiting magnitude of reference images was about 26.6mag
     (S/N=5 for 2arcsec aperture). We took search images on Nov. 3.
    The magnitude increase of the SNe compared with the images in the
    reference are given in the table below (photometric accuracy 0.1-0.2mag).

    Follow-up photometry was carried out with Suprime-Cam, and we
    confirmed SN signals at least 3 epochs among 7
    (Nov.3,6,10,28,30,Dec.7,8) for 30 SNe below.

    The supernova spectra were obtained with GMOS on Gemini-N on
    Nov. 6, 8, and 9; with ESI on KeckII on Nov. 6, 7, 9,
    and 10; with FORS2 on Yepun (VLT-UT4) on Nov. 7 - 11; and
    with FOCAS on Subaru on Nov. 12. Redshifts were obtained for 19
    SNe using either the host galaxy spectrum or with template spectrum
    fitting of SN.
