Spiral galaxy in the constellation Virgo
NGC 5806 is anintermediate spiral galaxy in theconstellation Virgo . It was discovered by German-British astronomerWilliam Herschel on 24 February 1786.[ 5] It is located about 70 millionlight-years (21Megaparsecs ) away from the Milky Way.[ 3] It is a member of theNGC 5846 Group .[ 2]
Supernovae and Imposter [ edit ] Supernova SN 2004dg in NGC 5806 Threesupernovae 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 aType Ib/c , it was later determined to be Type IIb.[ 11] Later analysis concluded that the progenitor had an initial mass of 15.2M ☉ .[ 12] iPTF13bvn (Type Ib , mag. 17.2) was discovered by thePalomar Transient Factory on 16 June 2013.[ 13] [ 14] SN Hunt 248 (also known asAT 2014ib ) was discovered by theCatalina Real-time Transient Survey and Stan Howerton on 21 May 2014. It was initially catalogued as a supernova, but was later classified as asupernova 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 aluminous red nova .[ 16] [ 17] ^a b c d e f "Results for object NGC 5806" .NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database .
