NGC 7714 is a spiral galaxy in the constellation Pisces. Its velocity with respect to the cosmic microwave background is 2430 ± 26 km/s, which corresponds to a Hubble distance of 116.9 ± 8.3 Mly (35.85 ± 2.54 Mpc).[2] In addition, five non-redshift measurements give a distance of 92.24 ± 8.69 Mly (28.280 ± 2.664 Mpc).[5] It was discovered by British astronomer John Herschel on 18 September 1830.[6]

NGC 7714 and NGC 7715 are interacting galaxies.[4] The pair are included in Halton Arp's Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies, listed as Arp 284.[7] NGC 7714 appears to be a highly distorted spiral, possibly a barred spiral galaxy. NGC 7715 is of uncertain type, probably an edge-on spiral or an irregular galaxy.[3]

Supernovae

[edit]

Three supernovae have been observed in NGC 7714:

  • SN 1999dn (Type Ib/c, mag. 16.3) was discovered by the BAO Supernova Survey on 19 August 1999.[8][3][9]
  • SN 2007fo (Type Ib/c, mag. 18.2) was discovered by the Lick Observatory Supernova Search on 9 July 2007.[10][11]
  • SN 2023pso (Type Ib, mag. 17.15) was discovered by GOTO on 7 August 2023.[12]
