Abstract
AGILE detected intense gamma-ray emission above 100 MeV from a source at Galactic coordinates (l, b) = (287.08, -1.08) +/- 0.6 deg (68% stat. c.l.) +/- 0.1 deg (syst.) (R.A., Dec. = 159.94, -59.84 deg, J2000), positionally consistent with the Galactic Nova ASASSN-18fv, previously reported in a gamma-ray flaring state by Fermi-LAT (ATel #11546).
