[vsnet-alert 14724] Re: Mis V1448 - missed classical or recurrent Nova?

[Hiroyuki Maehara]

Dear colleagues,
 
 The Kyoto Wide-field Survey (KWS) observed this field on Apr. 28 and
May 7. MisV1448 was fainter than V=12 mag on Apr. 28 and fainter than 
V=12.7 mag on May 7. These data suggest that the outburst started 
between May 7 and 13.

object         YYYYMMDD(UT)   mag  
MisV1448       20120428.81411 <120V
MisV1448       20120507.78079 <127V
MisV1448       20120518.77399 131:V

Best regards,
Hiroyuki Maehara
