Scientific paper

The results of the observations of GBS0526 - 66 during 1979 have been reviewed recently primarily in the context of its possible identification with the N49 supernova remnant in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Observations in 1981 and 1982, however, reveal a still more complex pattern of behavior and show both that the nature of this source of the 5 March 1979 event and its true position in space are far from being clear. Observations from Veneras 13 and 14 reveal that GBS0526 - 66 continues to generate weak recurrent gamma-ray bursts. Thus the transient object which during the 5 March burst behaved for several minutes as a flaring X-ray pulsar has since then been exhibiting a peculiar similarity with a hard X-ray burster.
