NGC 1448 is an unbarred spiral galaxy seen nearly edge-on in the constellation Horologium. It is at a distance of 55 million light years from Earth. It was discovered by British astronomer John Herschel on 24 October 1835.[2] Herschel observed the galaxy again on 14 December 1835, resulting in it being listed twice in the New General Catalogue, as NGC 1448 and as NGC 1457.[2]

From the spectral analysis of SN 2001el, over a dozen diffuse interstellar bands were discovered in NGC 1448 – one of the few cases that these bands were observed outside of the Milky Way. However, the bands were significantly weaker at SN 2003hn.[3]

In January 2017 it was announced that evidence for a supermassive black hole in NGC 1448 had been found in the center of the galaxy.[4]

Galaxy Group

[edit]

The galaxy belongs to the NGC 1433 group,[5] part of the Doradus cloud of galaxies.

NGC 1448 is considered to be part of a galaxy group known as LGG 102. It has at least 5 members, which are NGC 1411, PGC 13390, PGC 13409 and IC 1970.[6]

Supernovae

[edit]

Six supernovae have been observed in NGC 1448:

  • SN 1983S (Type II, mag. 14.5) was discovered by Robert Evans on 6 October 1983.[7][8]
  • SN 2001el (Type Ia, mag. 14.5) was discovered by Berto Monard [it] on 17 September 2001.[9][10] It reached magnitude 12.3, making it the brightest supernova of 2001.[11]
  • SN 2003hn (Type II, mag. 14.1) was discovered by Robert Evans on 25 August 2003.[12][13]
  • SN 2014df (Type Ib, mag. 14) was discovered by Berto Monard on 3 June 2014.[14][15]
  • SN 2020zbv (Type IIP, mag. 18.83) was discovered by the Distance Less Than 40 Mpc Survey (DLT40) on 10 November 2020.[16]
  • SN 2021pit (Type Ia, mag. 13.5) was discovered by ASAS-SN on 10 June 2021.[17]
