Sender: Daniel Perley
Reporting Group: ZTF Discovery Data Source: ZTF
Daniel Perley (LJMU), Lin Yan (Caltech), Kirsty Taggart (LJMU), Ragnhild Lunnan (Stockholm), Steve Schulze, Avishay Gal-Yam, Ofer Yaron (Weizmann) on behalf of ZTF report/s the discovery of a new astronomical transient.
IAU Designation: SN 2019kwt
Discoverer internal name: ZTF19aaqrime
Coordinates (J2000): RA = 19:39:22.590 (294.844125) DEC = +78:45:43.60 (78.762111)
Discovery date: 2019-04-09 09:23:19.000 (JD=2458582.8912)
Photometry
Discovery (first detection):
Discovery date: 2019-04-09 09:23:19.000
Flux: 20.92 ABMag
Filter: g-ZTF
Instrument: ZTF-Cam
Telescope: Palomar 1.2m Oschin
Last non-detection:
Archival info: Other
Remarks: This is a slow-rising object with a discovery magnitude close to the survey limit, so individual-epoch nondetections are not meaningful. It shows no history of variability in the survey prior to the initial detection, and there is no catalogued object in PS1 or ZTF reference imaging at this location.
