Astronomers have discovered a new radio signals from outer space – REGNUM

Ottawa, March 3, 2016, 16:27 – REGNUM the signals from the constellation of Auriga, which astronomers call “radio flares” or “radio bursts,” repeated again, according to the journal nature.

the theory of their “one-off” nature thus questioned. Radio burst FRB 121 102vpervye were recorded in 2007 with the help of Parkes telescope, located in Australia. Then there were found nine similar phenomena seen inexplicable periodicity of the structure.

A week ago, finding one of the outbreaks arrangement allowed the scientists to conclude that the phenomenon is generated in the course of the merger of neutron stars in their transformation into a black hole.

Paul Scholz from McGill University (Canada) and his colleagues found a flash repeat of four years ago and questioned the above hypothesis. In addition, in November 2015 Scholz using data Arecibo telescope in Puerto Rico discovered the “double» FRB 121,102 demonstrating tighter power, duration, and other similar parameters.

Later, researchers observed more than a dozen such outbreaks in the same area and seriously thought about this discovery. At least it can be concluded that the “radio flares” are not “one-time” nature. Their generates some periodic cosmic phenomenon. Scientists tend to associate it with magnetars – young neutron stars with extremely powerful magnetic field, radio waves gives rise to powerful flares.

However, the marked “radio bursts’, confirm, and” one-off “nature of such phenomena. Scientists believe that a there are two cosmic phenomena that generate partially similar signals, or one of the theories and interpretations of the mysterious phenomena is incorrect.

At the moment, scientists are trying to join forces and technical capabilities in a single network, retaining all phenomena related to “radio bursts.” They hope that this will allow them to determine the nature of the mysterious phenomenon
