SUPERNOVA 1992ax IN ANONYMOUS GALAXY
J. Mueller reports her discovery of a probable supernova in an
anonymous galaxy at R.A. = 22 08 24.01, Decl. = +44 47 04.2 (equinox
1950.0). The object is 19".5 south of the galaxy's nucleus and had a
blue magnitude of approximately 18.5 on a plate taken on Sept. 3 by C.
Brewer and Mueller with the 1.2-m Oschin Telescope in the course of
the second Palomar Sky Survey. A spectrum obtained Sept. 5 by S. M.
Hughes, J. R. Mould and M. Rich with the double spectrograph on the
5-m Hale telescope shows broad absorption at 640 nm, indicating that
the object is probably a type I supernova.
