Another Nova in Sagittarius
On 16th July 2012 CBAT announced a possible nova candidate called PNV J18193700-1907400
It had been discovered by T. Kojima, Gunma-ken, Japan, using Canon Digital Camera. Photometry reported on 18th July gave a V mag of 12.71
I took a low resolution (R=700) spectra of this nova candidate on 19th July 2012 from Armidale NSW using a LISA spectrograph on a 200mm diameter telescope.
