Scientific paper

We report the confirmation of a nova candidate in M 31 recently reported to us by K. Hornoch. We detected this object with an R magnitude of 18.7 in a 12x60s stacked R filter CCD image obtained on 2008 June 30.43 with the robotic 60cm telescope with an E2V CCD (2kx2k) of the Livermore Optical Transient Imaging System (Super-LOTIS, located at Steward Observatory, Kitt Peak, Arizona, USA). The position of the nova candidate is RA = 00h43m08.30s, Dec = +41d18'38.0" (J2000, accuracy of 0.3"), which is 4'30" east and 2'29" north of the core of M 31.
