Both SNe were at maximum light when the spectra were taken. We compare our high-z spectra with low-z normal and peculiar SNe Ia as well as with SNe Ic, Ib, and II. There are no significant differences between SN 1999ff and normal SNe Ia at low redshift. SN 1999fv appears to be an SN Ia and does not resemble the most peculiar nearby SNe Ia.en-USOptical Spectra of Type 1a Supernovae at z = 0.46 and z = 1.2Journal Article2019-09-2510.1086/317311
