Scientific paper

The rapid outbursts observed in X-ray and gamma-ray sources imply a concentrated energy source, allied with an efficient radiation mechanism. The general constraints on rapidly varying cosmic sources and the extreme problems posed by the March 5th 1979 event, if this indeed involves a source as remote as the large Magellanic Cloud (55 kpc distant) are outlined. A class of object which may disgorge a luminosity far exceeding the conventional Eddington limit is also discussed.
