SN 1988Z was a prototypical[2] type IIn supernova event in the equatorial constellation of Leo. The apparent host is an irregular galaxy with the designation MCG +03-28-22.[1]

low surface brightness spiral galaxy[3]

Observations

[edit]

This event was discovered independently, first by C. Pollas at the Côte d'Azur Observatory on a plate taken December 12, 1988, and the second by G. Candeo at the Asiago Astrophysical Observatory from a plate taken December 14.[4] The supernova was already past maximum when it was discovered. A spectrum taken December 17 showed this was most likely to be a type II supernova.[5]
