Scientific paper

Radio observations of the ongoing X-ray flare in the globular cluster M15 (ATel #3356, #3363), suggested that the ultracompact X-ray binary M15 X-2 was the flaring source (ATel #3378). This is surprising as ultracompact X-ray binaries such as M15 X-2 (22 minute period, Dieball et al. 2005, ApJ, 634, L105) are generally not expected to show factors of >10 flux variations over timescales of days to weeks.
