Discovered by Y. Sakurai, Mito, Japan, on two frames using Nikon D7100
digital camera + 180-mm f/2.8 lens, who writes there is a variable star
TSVSC1-TN-S300112300-126-67-2 at 21s.88 and 51".1. Nothing is visible at this
location on a frame (limit mag.= 12.1) taken on 2018 June 23.632 UT.
2018 06 30.2646 UT
Photometry results were V=10.43 and Ic=9.35 with 0.61-m f/6.5 CDK astrograph
+ FLI PL09000 CCD, iTelescope.NET at Auberry, CA, USA. Position end figures
were 22.93 and 43.9 in R.A.and Dec.

Mag. V= 10.57, R= 9.69, I= 8.84, position end figures 22s.96, 44".0 observed
by K. Yoshimoto, Yamaguchi-ken, Japan, using 0.50-m f/6.8 reflector + CCD +
focal reducer, Siding Spring, remotely. An image at

Another photometry results were B=12.16, V=10.98, Rc=10.37 and Ic=9.83 with
0.43-m f/6.8 CDK astrograph + FLI PL4710 CCD at iTelescope.NET, SSO, NSW,
Australia, I took low resolution spectra but I can detected no significant
feature (at leat, it is not late type star like Mira variables).

A progenitor candidate is the Pan-STARRS1 source PSO J182922.940-143044.155
(position end figures 22.935s, 44.19"; i= 20.26 mag). Likely nova eruption
with amplitude of more than 11 magnitudes (V band). --- Patrick Schmeer

The likely nova is located 4 arc minutes NE of gamma Scuti.
