Monitoring of Cyg X-3 giant flare with Medicina and the Sardinia Radio Telescope
Abstract
Following the detection of Cyg X-3 entering in an ultra soft X-ray state, a forthcoming giant flare was predicted by Trushkin et al. (ATel #9416). In fact, a significant radio flux increase was detected three weeks later, on 14-16 September 2016 (ATel #9502).
