The spectroscopic classification and explosion properties of SN2009nz associated with GRB091127 at z=0.490

We present spectroscopic observations of GRB091127 (z=0.490) at the peak of the putative associated supernova, SN2009nz. Subtracting a late-time spectrum of the host galaxy, we isolate the contribution of SN2009nz and uncover broad features typical of nearby GRB-SNe. This establishes unambiguously t...
