Photometric results were B=11.2, V=9.7, Rc=8.7, Ic=7.7, position end figures 25s.77, 21".5 (USNO-B1.0), remotely using 0.25-m f/3.4 hyperbolic astrograph + CCD (SBIG ST-10XME) at the RAS Observatory, iTelescope network, near Mayhill, NM, U.S.A. Position and magnitude were measured on an image composed from 3-frames which were taken by each 30-seconds exposure under the limiting magnitude = 15.7. Observer T. Yusa, Osaki, Japan.

I did multi-color photometry of this nova candidate. B=11.36, V=9.80, Rc=8.82, Ic=7.65. Position end figures are R.A. 25.69 and Dec. 21.81. Instrument for photometry is 25cm reflector+SBIG ST-10XME CCD at Mayhill, NM, USA (T4, iTelescope.NET). Inst. for astrometry is 43cmRC (fl=1930mm)+FLI-PL6303E CCD camera (T21, iTtelescope.NET).

We performed some follow-up of this object remotely through the 0.10-m f/5 reflector + CCD of ITelescope network (MPC Code - H06). On our images taken on June 27.3, 2012 we can confirm the presence of an optical counterpart with R-filtered CCD magnitude 8.9 at coordinates: R.A. = 17 52 25.79, Decl.= -21 26 21.6 (equinox 2000.0; CMC-14 catalogue reference stars).

K. Ayani, Bisei Astronomical Observatory, reports that M. Fujii (Kurashiki, Okayama, Japan) obtained a low-resolution spectrogram (R ~ 500, range: 400-950 nm) of this possible nova with 40-cm telescope of Fujii Kurosaki Observatory. Fujii notes that the spectrum shows broad and prominent Balmer lines (H-alpha FWHM: 4100 km/s), and broad lines of Fe II (multiplet 37, 42, 74), Na I D, He I (706.5 nm), O I (747.7, 777.3, 844.6 nm), Mg II (789.0, 823.2, 922.6 nm), Ca II (849.8 nm), N I (905.0 nm), and that the spectrum resembles that of Nova Sgr 2012 No.1. His spectrum is posted at website URL: http://otobs.org/FBO/novae/pnv_j17522579-2126215.htm.
