Scientific paper

We report the discovery of an optical nova candidate in M 31 on 3*60sec and 8*60sec stacked R filter CCD images obtained with the robotic 60cm telescope with an E2V CCD (2kx2k) Livermore Optical Transient Imaging System (Super-LOTIS, located at Steward Observatory, Kitt Peak, Arizona, USA). The object was first detected on 2007 Nov 13.27 and 13.38 with respective magnitudes of 17.4 and 17.5. The position for the nova candidate is RA = 00h43m04.14s, Dec = +41d15'54.3" (J2000, accuracy of 0.3"), which is 3' 43" east and 14" south of the core of M 31.
