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. ...

In the early 1980s, our understanding of binary star evolution љ based on the pioneer work by Paczynski (1971)[ 150 ], Tutukov and Yungelson (1973)[ 195 ], van den Heuvel and Heise (1972)[ 201 ], allowed us to construct a general evolutionary scenario љ which successfully explained the genesis of well-studied normal stars and offered potential explanation for new X-ray sources discovered in space experiments. ...

... The SN 1998bv discovered on April 6, 1998 in the blue compact galaxy HS 1035+4758 is the second supernova observed in a low-mass galaxy with intense SF burst. ... According to its characteristic spectrum, SN 1998bv is a type II supernova with estimated peak absolute brightness M 16.3. The very slow fading of its brightness suggests that the SN was discovered at the Plateau phase, 20-30 days after the peak of the light curve. The most probable classification of SN 1998bv is regular SN II-P. 3. ...
