Multi-Wavelength Views of New Galactic Radio Astronomy Mysteries

“Astronomers are uncovering a new class of enigmatic objects in radio astronomy called Long-Period Transients (LPTs), which challenge traditional models of pulsars, neutron stars and white dwarfs. Recent discoveries of two LPTs, one with an optical counterpart and another with coincident X-ray emissions, highlight how multi-wavelength observations are going to play a role in unlocking the secrets of these mysterious sources…”
