A 2.9 hr Periodic Radio Transient with an Optical Counterpart

A 2.9 hr Periodic Radio Transient with an Optical Counterpart

We present a long-period radio transient (GLEAM-X J0704−37) discovered to have an optical counterpart, consistent with a cool main-sequence star of spectral type M3. The radio periodicity occurs at the longest period yet found, 2.9 hr, and was discovered in archival low-frequency data from the Murch...
