Hi all,

Below is a report of a new SN.

Cheers,
Weidong


              SN 2001XXX in NGC 3504

   S. Beckmann and W. D. Li, University of California at Berkeley,
on behalf of LOTOSS (cf. IAUC 7514), report the discovery of an apparent
supernova (mag about 18.2) on unfiltered CCD images taken on Mar 12.4
and 13.3 UT with the 0.8-m Katzman Automatic Imaging Telescope (KAIT).
SN 2001XXX is located at R.A. = 11h03m15s.37, Decl. = +27o58'29".5
(equinox 2000.0), which is 55".3 east and 9".1 north of the nucleus
of NGC 3504. A KAIT image of the same field taken on Feb 4.4 UT showed
nothing at this position (limiting mag about 19.0).
