C. Jacques, C. Colesanti, C. Barreto, E. Pimentel, I. Mussi, J. Ribeiro, M. Domingues, J. Amancio, L. Amaral, P. Holvorcem, T. Napoleao report/s the discovery of a new astronomical transient.
IAU Designation: AT 2020uti
Discoverer internal name: BraTS-SON-T2-021
Coordinates (J2000): RA = 06:26:33.510 (96.639625) DEC = -51:31:28.70 (-51.524639)
Discovery date: 2020-10-03 04:57:22.000 (JD=2459125.7065046)
Photometry
Discovery (first detection):
Discovery date: 2020-10-03 04:57:22.000
Flux: 13.8 Other
Filter: Clear-
Instrument: Other
Telescope: Other
Remarks: Dark Energy Survey (DES) DR1 has an object J062633.53-513128.8 just 0.11 " from the transient , magnitudes r = 21.7, i = 22.3, z = 22.9, Y = 23.3, with star / galaxy discrimination index (0 = galaxy, 1 = star) in these 4 bands of 0.062, 0.037, 0.323, 0.004, suggesting that the transient would originate in a very distant galaxy.
Last non-detection:
