AAVSO Alert Notice 606
Observing campaign on nova in Vela - ASASSN-17mt
November 17, 2017

Event: Nova in Vela (ASASSN-17mt) and associated observing campaign

Discovered by: ASAS-SN (K. Z. Stanek (Ohio State University) et al.; ATel #10772)

Discovery magnitude: V=11.3, using data from the quadruple 14-cm "Cassius" telescope at CTIO, Chile

Discovery date: 2017 September 24.39 UT

Coordinates (2000.0): R.A. 08 50 29.62 Decl. -47 45 28.3 (from VSX)

Spectra: Spectroscopy indicating that ASASSN-17mt is a classical nova in the optically thick (Fe-curtain) stage was obtained 2017 September 28.77 UT by P. Luckas (International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research, Univ. of Western Australia; ARAS Group; ATel #10795).

Observing recommendations: Observations of all types (visual, CCD, DSLR, spectroscopy) and multiple bands as instrumentation permits are strongly encouraged as the nova evolves.

K.-L. Li et al. (Michigan State University) report a likely Fermi-LAT detection of ASASSN-17mt (ATel #10977), and have secured weekly observations with Swift for the next ten weeks. Additional multiwavelength observations may also take place. Increased and continuing optical coverage is essential, with V and I bands the highest priority. Visual observations are welcome.

Charts: Finder charts with a comparison star sequence for ASASSN-17mt may be created using the AAVSO Variable Star Plotter (VSP).

Submit observations: Please submit observations to the AAVSO International Database using the name ASASSN-17mt. Once a GCVS name is announced in an IAU Circular or CBET, please use that name.

Notes:
a. Designated ASASSN-17mt in the course of the ASAS-SN survey. Unless otherwise noted and except for observations reported to the AAVSO, the information in this Alert Notice is taken from ATels #10772, #10774, #10785, and #10795, and #10977.

b. Stanek et al. report that there was an ~80-day seasonal gap in the ASAS-SN coverage before the observations given above, so the nova could have peaked already. Nothing is seen down to <16.9 V at the location of the nova in subtracted images taken on UT 2017-07-07.95 and before. They also report that nothing had been detected since ASAS-SN began observing the location in February 2016.

c. Possible progenitor may be 2MASS J08502962-4745283 = WISE J085029.63-474528.0.

d. This nova is being followed on the AAVSO's Time Sensitive Alerts forum (https://www.aavso.org/asassn-17mt-class ... 1-mag-vela) and its Novae forum (https://www.aavso.org/asassn-17mt-nova-vela).

Congratulations to the ASAS-SN team on this discovery!
