TNS Classification Report No. 8234 [ 2020TNSCR3825....1R ]
Date Received (UTC): 2020-12-17 16:05:47 Sender: Andrea Reguitti
Group: Padova-Asiago
Andrea Reguitti report/s a classification of object: AT 2020upt
Type: NovaRedshift: -0.0001
Remarks: The spectrum is that of a Fe Nova, with strong and unresolved Balmer emission lines, visible up to H-epsilon. We detect emission lines of the Fe II multiplet 42. A prominent O I 777.4 nm line is also identified. The redshift is determined from the center of Halpha in the spectrum of the transient, and is consistent with that of M33 (z=-0.0006) reported by De Vaucouleurs et al. 1991, RC3, 9.
