The positions of the LMC nova candidates. The offsets were computed assuming the center of the LMC lies at R.A. = 5^h26^m41﹩\mathop{.}\limits^{{\rm{s}}}﹩19; decl. = −69^∘11′9﹩\mathop{.}\limits^{{\unicode{x02033}}}﹩15. The blue circled points represent known novae, the red circled points represent the four known RNe, and the two orange X symbols represent doubtful novae (LMCN 1998-12a and 2001-06a). Two additional novae, LMCN 2013-10a and 2015-03a, were observed in the outskirts of the LMC (at positions ﹩12{3}^{{\prime} }﹩ E, ﹩35{2}^{{\prime} }﹩ S, and ﹩11{6}^{{\prime} }﹩ E, ﹩36{7}^{{\prime} }﹩ S, respectively) and fell outside the image. The photograph of the LMC covers ﹩717\mathop{.}\limits^{{\rm{^{\prime} }}}64\times 641\mathop{.}\limits^{{\rm{^{\prime} }}}19﹩ and was taken by Eckhard Slawik (ESA/Hubble).
