immense energy that may be bound up with the origin of the universe The tickers are far closer the own galaxy the milky way They emit radio waves at intervals that vary by leu than one ten-millionth

frequencies than any telescope in the United States At first the beeps were As-regarded as man-made interference In December astronomers listened more closely Some of the news leaked out early this year Bnd the scientists were annoyed when some stories attributed the pulsations to green trying to signal earth from another planet The star-gazers crowded Into a meeting of the Royal Astronomical Society this week to find out what they were So many turned up that the society set up closed-circuit television for the overflow Dr Antony Hewish of Cambridge reported three of the similar intervals one every 119 seconds another every 122 seconds and the third every 134 seconds The fourth beeped every quarter of a second Other observations convinced him that the stars measured a few thousand miles across about the size of the moon But they were much more dense and concentrated with masses about equal to the sun They showed no sign of motion like that of the planets Dr Graham Smith turned the radiotelescope at Jodrell Bank on tha stars This apparatus arranged for monitoring the beeps of Russian and American spacecraft discovered that stars pulsations varied in intensity The louder ones were composed of two peaks Plotted on graph paper they look like camel humps Smith calculated the beeps were linearly polarised the glare-free straight beams of light that come through polarized sunglasses Richard Bingham turned the Royal new 42-inch Sir Isaac Newton optical telescope on the ticking stars He found no light pulsations to match the beeps the astronomers can hear these stars but see them The most spectacular speculation advanced so far is that they are starscomposed of neutrons packed so tightly together that a million tons would be about pinhead size The pulsation would come from energy left over from a previous explosion that had collapsed the star in on itself Theoreticians had -been predicting for decades the discovery of a neutron star but had spotted none But not enough evidence turned up at the meeting to persuade the astronomers they had found one at last Prof FTanz Kahn of Manchester University suggested the stars might be composed of two separate layers of Afferent burning gases vibrating an internal combustion engine Other ideas included rotating binary stars or the core of a supernova a star that exploded and left some debris behind VISIT THE NEW
