IC 831 is a type E-S0[1] elliptical galaxy located 300 million light-years away from the Solar System in the constellation of Coma Berenices.[2][3] It is estimated to be 60,000 light-years in diameter[2] and was first discovered on 25 February 1892 by Rudolf Spitaler, an Austrian astronomer.[4] It is not known whether it has an active galactic nucleus.

Supernova

[edit]

Type Ia supernova, iPTF14atg was discovered in IC 831 on May 3, 2015, which was similar to SN 2002es that exploded prior to that, in UGC 2708, a lenticular galaxy.[5][6] The progenitor type was a white dwarf, in which when it exploded, some of the shockwaves impacted its companion star.[7] It was discovered by Intermediate Palomar Transient Factory in California.
