Supernova 2000ch in NGC 3432
This page is devoted to information on
Supernova 2000ch in
NGC 3432
Basic information on this SN, including the last reported brightness,
on this Supernova can be found on the
main page. Information on
the original web pages for many of these images can be found on the
Supernova links web page.
Another LOSS discovery. This one has an interesting history.
2000ch started out as a galactic
variable, then
after its red shift was measured became an extra galactic nova.
Next, because of it's brightness (which is brighter than a Nova can get)
it got reclassified subluminous type IIn supernova. Finally it
appears that this may be an Eta Carini type explosion, similar to
1999bw, and
1997bs.

On 2013/03/02.830 ISON-Kislovodsk observatory noticed an object, which was
dubbed
PSN J10524126+3640086
After some observation, it was noticed that the location of this object
was identical to that of
2000ch.
It keeps comming back to life
Masakatsu Aoki found it yet again, this time calling it
TCP J10524126+3640086.
