15日上午 王彬在查看拍摄的超新星搜索图片中发现了一个疑似目标,目标很明显,经查看发现11.10,11.12的图上皆有迹象,确认为真实未知目标,经徐智坚协助后上报。
POSSIBLE SUPERNOVA IN PGC 10886
Bin Wang(Shaoxing, Zhejiang, China) and Xing Gao
(Urumqi,Xinjiang,China), report the discovery of a possible supernova
(mag approximately 17.7) on a 40-s survey image (limiting mag about
18.5)taken by Xing Gao in Xingming ObservationSky Survey(C42) around
Nov. 14.66703 UT. using an unfiltered CCD ( + Celestron C14
Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope D=350-mm @f/6.9 ). The new object
approximately located at R.A. =02h 52m 46s.01
Decl.=+46°55’52”.3(equinox 2000.0). Which is about 18.3″ east and
25.2″ south of the center of the PGC 10886. Nothing is visible at this
position on archival images taken on Nov. 02(limiting mag 18.0), Oct.
26(limiting mag 18.4) or on the DSS from Oct. 01,1989(limiting mag
about 19.8).

SUPERNOVA 2012gq IN PGC 10886 = PSN J02524601+4655523
Bin Wang, Shaoxing, Zhejiang, China; and Xing Gao, Urumqi, Xinjiang,
China, report the discovery of an apparent supernova (mag approximately 17.7)
on a 40-s unfiltered CCD survey image (limiting mag about 18.5) taken by Xing
Gao in course of the Xingming Observatory Sky Survey using a 0.36-m f/6.9
Celestron C14 Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope at Mt. Nanshan around Nov. 14.667
UT. The new object is approximately located at R.A. = 2h52m46s.01, Decl. =
+46d55’52”.3 (equinox 2000.0), which is about 18″.3 east and 25″.2 south of
the center of PGC 10886. Nothing is visible at this position on archival
images taken on Nov. 2 (limiting mag 18.0), Oct. 26 (limiting mag 18.4), or on
a Digitized Sky Survey image from 1989 Oct. 1 (limiting mag about 19.8). The
discoverer’s images are posted at http://www.xjltp.com/XOSS/XM05BW/XM05BW.htm.
The variable was designated PSN J02524601+4655523 when it was posted at the
Central Bureau’s TOCP webpage and is here designated SN 2012gq based on the
spectroscopic confirmation reported below. Additional CCD magnitudes for
2012gq (unfiltered unless noted otherwise): Nov. 10.842, 17.6 (Wang and Gao;
prediscovery; position end figures 45s.90, 52″.5); 15.422, 18.1 (Joseph
Brimacombe, Cairns, Australia; luminance filter; position end figures 46s.01,
52″.5); 17.028, 18.0 (Federica Luppi and Luca Buzzi, Varese, Italy; position
end figures 45s.95, 52″.2); 20.923, 17.3 (J. Nicolas, Vallauris, France;
0.41-m f/3.3 reflector; position end figures 45s.96, 52″.3). Brimacombe’s

R. Kotak, T.-W. Chen, and M. Fraser, Queen’s University, Belfast, report
that a spectrogram (range 330-975 nm; resolution about 1000) of PSN
J02524601+4655523 = SN 2012gq was obtained on Nov. 21.08 UT with the 4.2-m
William Herschel Telescope (+ ISIS). SN 2012gq has a nearly flat continuum,
with only a slight increase in flux towards the blue. The only evident
feature is broad (around a few thousand km/s) emission at low signal-to-noise,
centered on the rest wavelength of H_alpha in PGC 10886. While the largely
featureless continuum is similar to what is seen in young type-II supernovae,
pre-discovery images constrain 2012gq to be at least 10 days old, while the
slope of the spectrum is also inconsistent with a young supernova.
