spectra of this nova.

   Halpha emission was accompanied by a P Cyg absorption (blue-shifted by
1000 km/s)

Fujii-san:

   Balmer emission lines with P Cyg profiles (700 km/s for Halpha)
and Fe II lines were visible.

   The nova appears to be an Fe II-class nova.  The spectra suggest
that this object is still in its pre-maximum phase.
