POSSIBLE SUPERNOVA IN UGC 04958
Zhangwei Jin(Ningbo, Zhejiang, China) and Xing Gao (Urumqi, Xinjiang, China), report the discovery of a possible supernova (mag approximately 17.9) on two 40-s survey images (limiting mag about 19.5)taken by Xing Gao in Xingming ObservationSky Survey(C42) around Nov.05.8703 and Nov.06.8980 UT,2013. using an unfiltered CCD ( + Celestron C14 Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope D=350-mm @f/6.9 ).the new object approximately located at R.A. =09h 21m 08s.25 Decl.=+49o35’33”.8(equinox 2000.0). Which is about 63.7″ east and 34.2″ south of the center of the UGC 04958.
Nothing is visible at this position on archival images taken on Oct.22,2013. (limiting mag 19.2) or on the DSS(POSS2/UKSTU Red) from Mar. 30,1995(limiting mag about 19.8)
