Scientific paper

Observations with the Very Large Array of Cyg X-3 with the Very Large Array at several radio wavelengths are reported which show that the radio emission in its low state may be interpreted as arising entirely from the superposition of a series of flares that are wavelength-dependent with an apparent period near the 4.8 hr X-ray period. A model of the source in which each flare represents the injection of relativistic particles into a small volume which subsequently expands at constant velocity is qualitatively consistent with the data.
