Possible nova in Scorpius.

NISHIYAMA K. and KABASHIMA F.

Abstract (from CDS):

Koichi Nishiyama, Kurume, Japan; and Fujio Kabashima, Miyaki, Japan report their discovery of another possible nova (mag 8.6) on two 40-s unfiltered CCD frames (limiting magnitude 13.1) taken around Apr. 25.788 UT using a 105-mm f/4 camera lens (+ SBIG STL6303E camera). Five follow-up 2-s unfiltered CCD frames (limiting magnitude 17.3) taken around Apr. 25.796 using a Meade 200R 0.40-m f/9.8 reflector (+ SBIG STL1001E camera) yield the following precise position for the variable: R.A. = 16:55:13.16, Decl. = -38:03:46.9 (equinox 2000.0). Nothing is visible at this position on their past survey frames taken on Apr. 23.786 (limiting mag 12.9) and 24.757 (limiting mag 13.2) or on a Digitized Sky Survey image from 1995 June 4 (limiting red mag 18.0).
