[vsnet-alert 14361] Re: Magnitude 9 nova in Centaurus?

[Patrick Schmeer]

Arne Henden (AAVSO) has confirmed the new object:
"I upped the priority of the APASS field
that covers this new nova, and just looked
at the V-band image.  The object from the
CBAT unconfirmed objects page is there at
about 9th magnitude, so is confirmed and
looks like a good southern object to follow.
A V-image of the field can be found at:

I'll give better magnitudes and coordinates
tomorrow after processing the images.
Arne"
