Sebastian Gomez (Harvard CfA), Peter Blanchard (Harvard CfA), Daichi Hiramatsu (Harvard CfA), Harsh Kumar (Harvard CfA), Edo Berger (Harvard CfA) report/s a classification of object: SN 2024qxg
Type: SLSN-IRedshift: 0.45
Remarks: 2024qxg was selected as a possible SLSN-I by our FLEET program with a P(SLSN-I) = 90% (Gomez et al., 2020, ApJ, 904, 74). The redshift of z = 0.45 was determined the supernova features, with good matches to the SLSNe 2016ard and 2020znr a few days after peak. At this redshift the peak magnitude of the SN is M_r ~ -22.0, squarely in the SLSN regime.
The following Classification spectrum was provided:
