SALT spectroscopic classification of ASASSN-20oh as a classical nova in the LMC
Abstract
We report on high-resolution optical spectroscopy of the transient ASASSN-20oh, which was discovered by the All-Sky Automated Survey for SNe (ASAS-SN, Shappee et al. 2014, ApJ, 788, 48) on 2020-11-17.12UT, towards the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC).
