Descripción
This paper reports the discovery of a second type Ia supernova (SN
1992ac) in MCG 10-24-007 (IRAS 16362 + 5815), the parent galaxy of
another type Ia supernova (SN 1992R). As seen from here, these two
events must have occurred nearly simultaneously (separated by less than
two months) as indicated by the appearance of their spectra. To our
knowledge, MCG 10-24-007 (with a redshift of z = 0.052) now becomes the
most distant galaxy in which multiple supernova events have been
recorded. Furthermore, the time interval between the detection of the
two supernova events (less than two months) is among the shortest on
record.
