SOAR telescope spectroscopic classification of optical transients
R. Cartier (CTIO), G. Terreran (Northwestern), R. Margutti (Northwestern), P. Blanchard (CfA/Harvard), J. Espinoza (CTIO) and P. Ugarte (CTIO)
We report the following supernova classifications. The targets were supplied by supplied by the All Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae ASAS-SN (see Shappee et al. 2014, ApJ, 788, 48 and http://www.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/~assassin/index.shtml ). The observations were performed on the night of 2018 October 03 at the 4.1-m SOAR Telescope equipped with the Goodman High Throughput Spectrograph using the 400 lines/mm grating, and a slit width of 1.0 arc second, resulting in a spectral coverage from 380 nm to 775 nm with a resolution of 0.636 nm. Classifications were done with SNID (Blondin & Tonry, 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024).
