The Recurrent Nova Candidate M31N 1966-08a = 1968-10c is a Galactic Flare Star

Abstract

A spectrum of the quiescent counterpart of the Recurrent Nova candidate M31N 1966-08a (= M31N 1968-10c) obtained with LRS2 on the Hobby-Eberly Telescope reveals the object to be a foreground Galactic dMe flare star, and not a nova in M31.
