AAVSO ALERT NOTICE 347 (February 22, 2007)
SUBJECT: 1650-35 V1281 SCO = NOVA SCORPII 2007 NO. 2
Event: Nova in Scorpius
Discovered Independently by:
- Yuji Nakamura, Kameyama, Mie, Japan, (via H. Yamaoka, Kyushu University, IAU Circular No. 8810)
- Hideo Nishimura, Miyawaki, Kakegawa, Japan, (via S. Nakano, Sumoto, Japan, IAU Circular No. 8810)
Discovery Date:
- Nakamura: Feb. 19.8593 UT
- Nishimura: Feb. 20.8365 UT
Discovery Magnitude:
- Nakamura: 9.3 on two unfiltered CCD images (135-mm camera lens);
- Nishimura: 9.2 photographic (T-Max 400 film, Pentax 6x7 camera)
Position (provided by K. Itagaki, Yamagata, Japan):
R.A.= 16h 56m 59.35s, Decl. = -35o 21' 50.2" (2000.0)
Spectra:
H. Naito and S. Narusawa, Nishi-Harima Astronomical Observatory (NHAO), and H. Yamaoka, Kyushu University, report that a low-resolution spectrogram taken on Feb. 21.84 UT with the 2.0-m NAYUTA telescope (+ MALLS) indicates that the star is a classical nova. They also report that a narrow Na I D absorption feature suggests the existence of considerable interstellar reddening.
AAVSO Charts:
The comparison stars listed below are among those used by Sebastian Otero in his sequences and have been checked in ASAS and GCPD by Michael Simonsen, Imlay City, MI, and are recommended for use at this time. According to Simonsen, red stars among Otero's stars have been excluded here.
