[vsnet-campaign-nova 366] V1178 Sco spectrum, indeed a nova!

V1178 Sco spectrum, indeed a nova!

   Mitsugu Fujii <aikow@po.harenet.ne.jp> reports the spectrum of V1178 Sco
taken on June 24.57 UT.  Although the signal-to-noise ratio was rather low
because of the intervening clouds, a very strong emission lines of H-alpha
(FWHM about 1300 km/s), and weaker H-beta were confirmed.

   The spectrum is available at:
   http://vsnet1.harenet.ne.jp/~aikow/v1178_0624.gif

   The object is indeed a nova (not a novalike object).  The FWHM of the
emission line suggests a moderately slow to moderate speed class.
