NGC 5806 is an intermediate spiral galaxy in the constellation Virgo. It was discovered by German-British astronomer William Herschel on 24 February 1786.[5] It is located about 70 million light-years (21 Megaparsecs) away from the Milky Way.[3] It is a member of the NGC 5846 Group.[2]

Supernovae and Imposter

Supernova SN 2004dg in NGC 5806

Three supernovae and one supernova imposter have been observed in NGC 5806:

  • SN 2004dg (Type II, mag. 17.1) was discovered by Associazione Ternana Astrofili on 19 July 2004.[6][7] The progenitor of SN 2004dg has not been detected and is expected to have been a relatively low mass, low luminosity, red supergiant.[8]
  • SN 2012P (Type IIb, mag. 15.0) was discovered by Fabio Briganti on 22 January 2012.[9][10] Originally classified as a Type Ib/c, it was later determined to be Type IIb.[11] Later analysis concluded that the progenitor had an initial mass of 15.2 M.[12]
  • iPTF13bvn (Type Ib, mag. 17.2) was discovered by the Palomar Transient Factory on 16 June 2013.[13][14]
  • SN Hunt 248 (also known as AT 2014ib) was discovered by the Catalina Real-time Transient Survey and Stan Howerton on 21 May 2014. It was initially catalogued as a supernova, but was later classified as a supernova imposter. The progenitor was detected as a cool hypergiant with an absolute visual magnitude of −9 and 400,000 times more luminous than the sun. The eruption saw it increase in luminosity to around 80,000,000 L.[15] Later analysis concluded that this object is a luminous red nova.[16][17]
