H. Naito and S. Ozaki, Nishi-Harima Astronomical Observatory; and H. Yamaoka, Kyushu University, report that a low-resolution spectrum (resolution 1200 at H_alpha, range 420-680 nm) of this new object was obtained on Apr. 7.80 UT with the 2.0-m NAYUTA telescope under hazy conditions. The spectrum shows a flat continuum with prominent Balmer lines, showing a P-Cyg profile, and other lines in absorption, which suggests that it is indeed a classical nova caught at maximum light. The H_alpha peak shows a self-absorption feature; the FWHM of the H_alpha emission is 1470 km/s, and its absorption minimum is blueshifted by 1720 km/s from the emission peak obtained by Gaussian fitting. Yamaoka adds that M. Fujii (Ibara, Okayama, Japan) also took a spectrum (range 400-850 nm) of this object on Apr. 7.79, which shows the same features as noted above.
