[vsnet-alert 16574] Re: PNV J19023335+0315190: red POSS2 inspection

[Terry Bohlsen]

Dear All

I have taken a spectra of PNV J19023335+031590
The spectra demonstrates hydrogen alpha emission with a FWHM of 800 km/s
No other features were visible as the S/N was low.
The spectra was taken with the star very low in the sky with a
mag
V= 15.61

The spectra was obtained with a LISA spectrograph using a 24um slit on a
280mm diameter telescope from ny observatory at Armidale NSW
Australia -30.46061S, 151.57011E
R=900
The spectra is posted at
