Active Dates: March 27, 2011 – April 3, 2011


Abstract:

Event: V5588 SGR = NOVA SAGITTARII 2011 No. 2 = PNV J18102135-2305306 [V5588 Sgr] Discovered by: Koichi Nishiyama, Kurume, Japan, and Fujio Kabashima, Miyaki, Japan Discovery Date: ~ 2011 March 27.832 UT Discovery Magnitude: unfiltered CCD magnitude mag 11.7 on two 40-s unfiltered CCD frames using a 105-mm f/4 camera lens (+ SBIG STL6303E camera) Position: R.A. = 18:10:21.35, Decl. = -23:05:30.6 (equinox 2000.0)

Justification:

H. Maehara, Kyoto University, reports that CCD images of the variable obtained with a 0.25-m telescope at Kwasan Observatory yield the following magnitudes: March 28.788, Ic = 10.17; 28.789, Rc = 11.40; 28.791, V = 12.86; 28.798, B = 14.47. S. Kiyota (Tsukuba,Japan) writes that images obtained remotely with a 31-cm reflector at the GRAS Observatory, Officer, Victoria, Australia, on March 28.670 yield magnitudes V = 12.81, Rc = 11.54, Ic = 10.38, B = 14.66, and position end figures 21.36s, 29.9" for the nova.
