SUPERNOVA 2010eb IN NGC 488
     Further to CBET 2321 and 2323, D. Milisavljevic, R. Fesen, and J. Parrent,
Dartmouth College, report on low-resolution spectra (range 440-800 nm) of SN
2010eb obtained during morning twilight with the 2.4-m Hiltner telescope (+
CCDS) at the MDM Observatory on June 13.47 UT.  Inspection of these spectra
show that 2010eb appears to be a spectroscopically peculiar, sub-luminous
type-Ia supernova.  The spectra most closely resemble that of SN 1998bp
(Matheson et al. 2008, A.J. 135, 1598) at approximately two weeks after
maximum light.
