J. L. Prieto, Princeton University, reports that he obtained an optical spectrum (range 370-930 nm) of TCP J04550000-7027150 on Mar. 27.0 UT using the du Pont 2.5-m telescope (+ WFCCD) at Las Campanas Observatory. The spectrum shows strong and broad emission lines of the Balmer series, as well as several N and He lines, making it a "N/He" nova. The FWHM of H-alpha + the [N II] feature is 5700 km/s. The emission lines also show P-Cyg absorption troughs, with the minimum at approximately -4700 km/s with respect to the rest wavelength of the lines. The spectrum looks similar to the earliest spectrum of LMC 1990 No. 1 (Williams et al. 1991, Ap.J. 376, 721), including a rising blue continuum below about 400.0 nm, but this new nova is likely younger given the presence of strong P-Cyg absorption.
