Details:
We performed some follow-up of this new Supernova in M82 through a 0.50-m f/6.8astrograph + CCD + f/4.5 focal reducer from MPC Code H06 (iTelescope,New Mexico). On our images taken on January 22.3, 2014 we can confirmthe presence of an optical counterpart with unfiltered CCD magnitude 11.3 and R-filtered magnitude 11.0 at coordinates:
R.A. = 09 55 42.17, Decl.= +69 40 25.9
(equinox 2000.0; UCAC-3 catalogue reference stars).
