[vsnet-chat 3337] Re: LS 5039 - "galactic microquasar"?

[aah@nofs.navy.mil]

Note that professionals have been calling these objects
microquasars for quite a while.  Names are often not
strictly correct; they are often proposed by someone in
a paper and used by others because they are compact,
novel, or at least close to a correct description
of the phenomena.  See for example the web page
for one of the upcoming microquasar meetings:
