Discovered by Seiji Ueda, Kushiro, Hokkaido, Japan, on six frames (mag=11.2, limiting mag 13.1, 6-s exp.) using Canon EOS 6D digital camera + 200-mm F/3.2 lens. On 2024 Mar. 26.7705 UT, mag=13.6 (limiting mag 14.7, 7-s exp.), position end figures 50.63s, 35.5" using 0.25-m F/6.3 Schmidt Cassegrain reflector + Nikon D5000 digital camera. Nothing is visible at this location on the frames taken on 2024 Mar. 25.7730 UT (limiting mag.= 12.9). --- Seiichiro Naito and Isao Endoh (NAOJ)

The object was fainter than the unfiltered magnitude CV=13.0 at the NMW ( https://scan.sai.msu.ru/nmw/ ) images obtained on 2024-03-25.9646 UT, 0.77 days prior to discovery. The reported position of the transient coincides with a red dwarf star Gaia DR3 4282562266517007104 (Gmag= 14.47, Plx= 13.356 +/-0.037 mas.) and the X-ray source 1RXS J185950.5+060545 suggesting the event might have been a chromospheric flare on the previously unknown UV Ceti type variable. ---- Stanislav Korotkiy (Astroverty, Ka-Dar), Kirill Sokolovsky (UIUC, SAI MSU), Nikolay Potapov, Sergei Ostapenko
