What we're seeing is a star that is the cosmic equivalent of «Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde,» with the ability to change from one form to its more intense counterpart with startling speed,» said Scott Ransom, an
astronomer at the National
Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) in Charlottesville, Va. «Though we have known that X-ray binaries — some of which are observed as X-ray pulsars — can evolve over millions of years to become rapidly spinning radio pulsars, we were surprised to find one that seemed to swing so quickly between the two.&r
