Dear colleagues, > > According to the same IAUC, Kushida and Kushida reported > >astrometry of a bright object on an unfiltered CCD image: 18h 07m > >20s.38, -27o 24' 31".6 (J2000.0). > > Kushida communicated that it was mag about 8.5 on this image. > Compared with the photographic magnitude by Nishimura (98p on 8.792 > UT), the new object is rather red source, which is less likely a > typical nova in the rising phase. It is near by Nova 1999 Sgr = V4444 Sgr. It will be valuable to check the images of the old nova in 1999. We the MISAO Project also have some images of this field. I will investigate it later.
