Dear Colleagues,
Congratulations to Takamizawa-san and Yamamoto-san! The spectrum
taken at Okayama Astrophysical Observatory (M. Uemura and T. Kato,
Kyoto University) clearly shows the presence of strong H-alpha and (weaker)
H-beta emission lines. The object is indeed a nova (probably not a X-ray
nova). A more detailed description of the spectrum will be reported
by Uemura-san within an hour. We are still looking forward to hearing
whether the nova is a recurrece of the suspect nova CI Aql in 1917.
Regards,
Taichi Kato
