Abstract (from CDS):

L. Wang, G. Aldering, S. Perlmutter, and W. M. Wood-Vasey, LBNL, report that a spectrum (range 450-1000 nm) of SN 2002kk, obtained on 2002 Nov. 9 UT with the Keck II telescope (+ ESI spectrograph), showed it to be a type-Ia supernova about two months after maximum. The spectrum is consistent with a spectrum of SN 1991T taken at 67 days past maximum. This approximate date is consistent with the date of maximum derived from the unfiltered photometry, which gives Aug. 26 ± 2 days for the maximum (or 74 days before the spectrum was taken). Based on an overall chi**2 minimization fit of the spectrum compared with SN 1991T, Wang et al. find a redshift of z = 0.09 for SN 2002kk.
