Leonardo Amaral, Eduardo Pimentel, Cristovao Jacques, Carlos Colesanti, Carlos Barreto, Israel Mussi, Joao Ribeiro, Marcelo Domingues, Joao Amancio, Paulo Holvorcem, Tasso Napoleao on behalf of the Brazilian Transient Search (BraTS) report/s the discovery of a new astronomical transient.
IAU Designation: AT 2020fup
Discoverer internal name: BraTS-OCA-T1-012
Coordinates (J2000): RA = 13:28:04.330 (202.018042) DEC = -29:28:42.60 (-29.4785)
Discovery date: 2020-04-03 04:48:55.296 (JD=2458942.70064)
Remarks: Transient with no visible host is 1.3" from source J132804.2-292842 in the Chandra Source Catalog, 2.2" from source J132804.2-292844 in the Catalog of Chandra ACIS point like sources, which gives a distance of 57.1 Mpc, and 1.1" from source J132804.4-292842 in The MORX Catalogue, which gives R = 18.6. Object may be very faintly visible in Pan-STARRS/DR1 image (from bands z and g) in AladinLite, and appears in DSS2 (red), but signficantly fainter than in our discovery images.
