TYPE IIp SUPERNOVA

SN2004et in NGC6946

September 2004 -

30th Sept 2004

3rd Oct 2005

 

This Supernova was "adopted" by the QuickCam and Unconventional Imaging Users Group (QCUIAG) and formed an introduction to using modified webcams for photometry for several members of the group. This is a record of my contributions to the light curve, using a VC200L and an unfiltered B+W SC3 modified Vesta webcam.

A spectra showing it to be type II was also measured here

The characteristic plateau and sudden drop of a type IIp supernova are clear in the light curve.
