A team of U.S. and German astrophysicists have made the first ever detection of X-rays coming from a comet. ... Following the initial detection, the team reported repeated X-ray emissions from the comet over the next 24 hours. ... One preliminary theory is that X-ray emission from the Sun was absorbed by a cloud of gaseous water molecules surrounding the nucleus of the comet, and then were re-emitted by the molecules in a process physicists call "fluorescence." ...

... 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. ...
