Recently, low frequency, broadband radio emission has been observed accompanying bright meteors by the Long Wavelength Array (LWA). The broadband spectra between 20 and 60 MHz were captured for several events, while the spectral index…

Many astronomical sources produce transient phenomena at radio frequencies, but the transient sky at low frequencies (<300 MHz) remains relatively unexplored. Blind surveys with new widefield radio instruments are setting increasingly…

We present a combined analysis of the optical spectral variability for two samples of QSOs, 42 objects at $z<0.4$ monitored at the Wise Observatory (Giveon et al 1999), plus 59 objects up to $z\sim 3$ in the field of the Magellanic Clouds,…
