sn_submit

sn_submit is a C-shell script which inspects a supernova search candidate file and sees whether it is worthy of being looked at again. It does it by testing the quality of the match and the brightness of the candidate. If a candidate passes, the program writes a request file with a very high priority to reobserve the galaxy copies it into the request directory it then waits one hour and uses the tin command to inform the telescope scheduler. If the re-observation also detects the supernova, it may be rescheduled again.
