[vsnet-alert 5728] Re: Possible Nova in Saggitarius; astrometry and the quiescent counterpart



Dear all,

>Immediately neighbourhood of this position, an USNO_A2.0 star
>(position end figures 40s.414, 15".40, rmag = 15.8, bmag = 17.4)
>exists, which is the plausible counterpart at quiescent.

This star is really seen on DSS2R image.  There seems to exist an dim 
(rmag about 18) star 2"-3" northeast of this USNO star, and no other
object can be seen in 5" radius.
