Supernova 2004fu in NGC 6949.

ARBOUR R. and BRIGGS D.

Abstract (from CDS):

Further to IAUC 8406, R. Arbour reports his discovery of an apparent supernova on unfiltered CCD images taken with a 0.3-m f/6.3 Schmidt-Cassegrain reflector on Nov. 4.874 (at mag approximately 16.8) and 5.813 (mag approximately 16.5). The new object is located at R.A. = 20h35m11s.54, Decl. = +64o48'25".7 (equinox 2000.0), which is 29" east and 15" north of the center of NGC 6949. An image taken by D. Briggs with a 0.60-m f/4.7 reflector on Nov. 5.864 yields position end figures 11s.62, 26".5. Nothing is visible at this location on a patrol image taken by Arbour on Oct. 31.907 (limiting mag approximately 17.5) or on Digitized Sky Survey images from 1991 (limiting blue mag 19.0) and 1992 (limiting red mag 19.0).
