Nova Sct 2003: spectroscopy by Fujii M. Fujii (Fujii Bisei Observatory) reports the following spectrum of the possible nova in Sct. The H-alpha and H-beta lines are clearly seen in emission (FWHM of the H-alpha 700 km/s). The object is confirmed to be an Fe-II class nova by the presence of Fe II series emissions. The NaD line is in absorption, consistent with the moderate reddening. See: http://vsnet1.harenet.ne.jp/~aikow/p_n_sct_20030831.gif Relayed by Taichi Kato, VSNET admin
