POSSIBLE SUPERNOVA IN IC 2531
T.-H. Liou, T.-W. Chen, H.-W. Lin, C.-S. Lin, and C.-Y. Shih report
the discovery of an apparent supernova (mag about 15.9) on unfiltered
CCD images taken in the course of the Taiwan Supernova Survey on May
3.54 UT with the 1-m Lulin Observatory telescope. The new object was
confirmed at mag 15.7 on May 8.81 and is located at R.A. = 9h59m55s.76,
Decl. = -29o37'03".3 (equinox 2000.0), which is 1".1 east and 0".3 south
of the center of IC 2531. Nothing was visible at this location on a
Digitized Sky Survey image (limiting mag about 21.0). The discoverers
have posted images of the new object at the following World Wide Web URL:
