ATLAS21zqo (AT2021qvr): discovery of a candidate SN in NGC 7678 (41 Mpc)
Abstract
Here we report the ATLAS discovery of the transient ATLAS21zqo (AT2021qvr) in galaxy NGC 7678 at magnitude m_o = 17.71 +/- 0.07. At a distance of 41 Mpc (redshift independent, from NED), the transient was discovered on MJD = 59387.59 (2021-06-22.59) with an absolute magnitude of M = -15.46 +/- 0.07. The last non-detection through forced photometry was on MJD = 59383.57. Spectroscopic classification is encouraged.
