Abstract
The discovery of a previously uncatalogued extended object at a19so = 17h 21m 508 and 81950 = -24° 15' 44" is reported. The size (d 60") and appearance on the ESO R Atlas field 519 are similar to those of several reddened globular clusters found in the last two decades. This globular cluster candidate is projected on the bulge, at 1 = 1.411° and b = 6.393°. Within the region 20° vs 20° centered on the Galactic nucleus direction, the object is located in the quadrant least populated by known glo  ...
