Abstract (from CDS):

G. Pignata, J. Maza, M. Hamuy, R. Antezana, L. Gonzalez, P. Gonzalez, P. Lopez, S. Silva, G. Folatelli, D. Iturra, R. Cartier, and F. Forster, Universidad de Chile; B. Conuel, Wesleyan University; and D. Reichart, K. Ivarsen, A. Crain, D. Foster, M. Nysewander, and A. LaCluyze, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, on behalf of the CHASE project, report the discovery of an apparent supernova (mag approximately 16.5 ± 0.2) on R-band images taken on Nov. 26.11 and 27.23 UT with the 0.41-m 'PROMPT 4' telescope located at Cerro Tololo. The new object is located at R.A. = 2h25m04s.00 ± 0".1, Decl. = -24o48'02".4 ± 0".1 (equinox 2000.0), which is about 4".9 west and 45" south of the center of the galaxy NGC 922 (and situated on top of a visible source that is probably an H II region or a compact cluster). Nothing is detected at this position on archival images taken on Nov. 17.27 (limiting mag 17.5) and 13.13 (limiting mag 18.0). Tye type-II supernova 2002gw (cf. IAUC 7995, 7996, 8001) also appeared in NGC 922.
