The array was designed to detect compact radio sources such as these by virtue of the fact that they would scintillate (twinkle) when observed from the Earth through the interplanetary medium ? ... One of Antony Hewish?s research students, Jocelyn Bell, was set the task of operating the telescope and inspecting the daily charts for the kind deflections in the trace which occurred when a scintillating source passed over the array. ...

The direct detection of gravitational waves is one of those events long-expected by physicists that are nevertheless a significant occurrence which excites the world scientific community as if something unexpected has happened. ... Many rumors leaked ahead of the conference, and the fact that something (that is, a signal corresponding to gravitational waves) was discovered by LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory) was discussed on the sidelines. ... arXiv:1602.03868 . ...

... V4641 Sgr is known as a detached binary containing a 9 Msol. black hole and an A0 type companion. ... Spectra of V4641 Sgr were taken by us using SAO 1-m telescope between May 23.972 and 24.002 UT (the orbital phase of 0.35), wavelength range 3900-7500A, resolution 8A, S/N~30-40. ... These observations show essential light excess over the quiet light level seen only in the orbital phases between -0.25 and +0.25 with the maximum value of 0.15 mag in the V band at the black hole inferior conjunction. ...

... The jets can also be produced in smaller scale by binary stellar systems. ... Some 200 -- 250 X-ray binaries, systems in which a neutron star or black hole is accreting material from a companion star, are known. Approximately 20% of these sources have been detected at radio wavelengths, and in several cases high resolution radio observations have resolved this emission into jet-like structures, sometimes with components moving at relativistic velocities. ... It is variable radio source. ...
