by Dolorous_Edd
Found it in RGZ ARG0001w5e
Looks awfuly like green pea, also has z_sp = 0.356
SDSS J142644.22+271151.3 - 1237665350243647756
It also the source of compact radio emission in FIRST Peak flux (mJy) ~2.50 ± 0.26

Listed as supernova SN 1991W in NED, but still visible in below DECaLS DR2 image? (incomplete)

Don't think it is Sn
DECaLS DR2 image
Yes, I saw this, likely imaged in single band, most likely z-band since it mapped to red in decals

Even without image dates, doesn't the average time between SDSS (max 2008?) and DECaLS (2014-2015?) automatically rule out a Sn?

It is visible even in DSS which waaayyyy older

Weird that it's actually listed as Sn...
MJD 5.314832E4 for all bands; 05-23-2004 if im correcthttp://cas.sdss.org/dr4/en/tools/explore/obj.asp?ra=216.683733&dec=27.196555
Nice find! 😃. Really curious how it got to be listed as Sn though, this isn't an automated process right?

Lol already known not to be a Sn in 1991;

That's a very interesting spectrum for many reasons, but a unusually large magnesium flux suggests old stars. I've never seen such a huge magnesium flux before in a GP. GPs are thought to contain old stars, as Amorin et al. proved in their observations.
TYPE=STAR, need I write more?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pea_galaxy

Three GPs have been observed using the GMRT and were found to have extremely high magnetic fields. I found the study mainly incomprehensible, but others might enjoy it. Certainly if there is a cache of GPs in RGZ, they could be grouped. I'm completely ignorant about RGZ.

Were any of the GPs detected in FIRST without stacking??? I mean if you look at FIRST and you will clearly see that it is radio source?
