    We present a progress report on MERLIN radio imaging of a radio outburst from GRS 1915+105. The major ejection occurred at the end of an approximately 20-day `plateau' state, characterised by low/hard X-ray fluxes and a relatively strong flat-spectrum radio component. Apparent superluminal motions have been mapped with unprecedented resolution, and imply higher velocities in the jet than previously derived.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures.

    VLBI observations of SNR in M82 - Is 41.95+575 an anomalous SNR or something else ?

    No full text
    Global VLBI 1.7GHz datasets from 1990 and 1998 have been used to study the evolution of SNR 41.95+575 in M82. An expansion velocity of around 1800 km/s is found with an implied birth around 1915. A young 41.95+575 would resemble radio supernovae seen in Arp220, although it could also be an evolving accretion disc system</jats:p
