ATLAS21gfy (AT2021dbg): discovery of a candidate SN in MCG -01-24-014 (92 Mpc)
Abstract
Here we report the ATLAS discovery of the transient ATLAS21gfy (AT2021dbg) in galaxy MCG -01-24-014 at magnitude m_c = 18.13 +/- 0.06. At a distance of 92 Mpc, the transient was discovered on MJD = 59260.43 (2021-02-15.43) with an absolute magnitude of M = -16.87 +/- 0.06. The last non-detection through forced photometry was on MJD = 59256.43. Spectroscopic classification is encouraged.
