AT 2023prq: A Classical Nova in the Halo of the Andromeda Galaxy.

HEALY-KALESH M.W. and PERLEY D.A.

Abstract (from CDS):

The classical nova, AT 2023prq, was discovered on 2023 August 15 and is located at a distance of 46 kpc from the Andromeda galaxy (M31). Here we report photometry and spectroscopy of the nova. The “very fast” (${t}_{2,{r}^{{\prime} }}\sim 3.4$ days) and low luminosity (${M}_{{r}^{{\prime} }}\sim -7.6$) nature of the transient along with the helium in its spectra would indicate that AT 2023prq is a “faint-and-fast” He/N nova. Additionally, at such a large distance from the center of M31, AT 2023prq is a member of the halo nova population.
