Palomar Gattini-IR discovery and classification of a new highly reddened Galactic nova PGIR22akgylf in the active TESS field
Abstract
We report the discovery and spectroscopic classification of the highly reddened transient PGIR22akgylf / AT 2022sfe in the ongoing TESS Sector 55. The transient was identified in regular survey operations of Palomar Gattini-IR (De et al. 2020; Moore & Kasliwal 2019).
