Nova in Canis Major - N CMa 2018 = TCP J07134590-2112330
Active Dates: March 17, 2018 – March 26, 2018
Abstract:
Nova in Canis Major - Nova CMa 2018 = TCP J07134590-2112330 was discovered by Yuji Nakamura using a 10-cm f/3 reflector. The nova was spectroscopically confirmed by J. Strader et al. using the 4-m Southern Astrophysical Research Telescope. Observations of all types (visual, CCD, DSLR, PEP, spectroscopy) and multiple bands are encouraged.
Justification:
The nova is a young classical nova and requires extensive observation as it evolves.
