Sziasztok!
Az CBET szerint ez az év elsp szupernóvája: SN 2012A
Szabó Gyula piszkéstetői észlelése is szerepel az CBET 2974. számába:
hétfő/kedd éjjel 14,04 magnitudónak észlelte V-ben a 40 centis
automata távcsővel. Granula!
(Apropó, ez valami új műszer Piszkésen?)
Egy olasz amatőr kicsivel később 13.7V fényességnél észlelte a
csillagot.
Snt, a mélyég rovatba inkább Gyulus képét kérd el!

SUPERNOVA 2012A IN NGC 3239 = PSN J10250739+1709146
B. Moore, J. Newton, and T. Puckett report the discovery of an apparent
supernova (mag 14.6) on an unfiltered CCD image (limiting mag 18.8) taken with
a 0.40-m reflector at Portal, AZ, U.S.A., on Jan. 7.3869 UT in the course of
the Puckett Observatory Supernova Search. The new object, which was confirmed
at mag 14.4 on Jan. 8.3352 by Puckett with the 40-cm reflector at Portal, is
located at R.A. = 10h25m07s.39, Decl. = +17o09´14".6 (equinox 2000.0), which
is 25" east and 16" south of the center of the irregular galaxy NGC 3239.
Nothing is visible at this position on images taken by Puckett on 2011 Dec. 29
(limiting mag 19.0). An image has been posted by the discoverers at website

http://www.possdata.com/PSNJ10250739+1709146.jpg. The variable was
designated PSN J10250739+1709146 when it was posted at the Central Bureau´s
TOCP webpage and is here designated SN 2012A based on the spectroscopic
confirmation reported below.
Additional CCD magnitudes reported for 2012A (unfiltered unless noted
otherwise): Jan. 9.054 UT, 13.9 (F. Luppi and Luca Buzzi, Varese, Italy;
0.38-m f/6.8 reflector; position end figures 07s.38, 14".3; reference stars

mag 16.5; position end figures 07s.42, 14".4; offset 33" east and 31" south,
though highly uncertain due to difficulty in determining any center to NGC
3239; UCAC3 reference stars; image posted at the following website URL:

10.042, B = 14.12 +/- 0.10, V = 14.02 +/- 0.07, R = 13.85 +/- 0.07, I = 13.93

Martignoni, Magnago, Italy, 25-cm f/10 Schmidt-Cassegrain reflector).
V. Stanishev, Centro Multidisciplinar de Astrofisica, Instituto Superior
Tecnico, Lisbon, on behalf of a larger collaboration, reports that a spectrum
of PSN J10250739+1709146 = SN 2012A, obtained on Jan. 10.145 UT by T. Pursimo
with the Nordic Optical Telescope (+ ALFOSC; range 350-920 nm), shows it to be
a type-II supernova soon after explosion.
