Scientific paper

We report on Target of Opportunity observations performed with Swift on 2008 April 11 and 15, and MERLIN on April 13 of the extremely fast nova V2491 Cyg (IAUC #8934, #8935, CBET #1334, ATel #1475). During the first Swift/XRT observation (3.76 ksec; taken near the optical peak of the nova outburst, see IAUC #8934), using a 10 pixel extraction region for the source at the position of Swift J194302.1+321913, we measure 6 counts compared to an estimated background level of 1.27 counts.
