Scientific paper

The discovery of a weak, arcsec-scale double radio source located symmetrically with respect to the compact variable radio core of Cyg X-3 is reported. The double radio source has a separation of about 6 arcsec and is roughly aligned with the elongation direction of the subarcsec core from VLBI observations. Like the latter, it has a rather broad opening angle, which suggests a generic connection between the inner and outer radio structures, and implies that the poor collimation evident in the large-scale double source originates near the binary system.
