Notes

The object was detected in an outburst in 2020. According to Aydi et al. (2020), the spectrum bears a resemblance to that of symbiotic novae, although no signs of a red giant star were observed in the red/near-infrared part of the spectrum. Mroz & Udalski (2020) suggested that the progenitor was a pulsating red giant.
