The existence of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos has been unambiguously demonstrated, but their sources remain elusive. IceCube reported an association of a 290-TeV neutrino with a gamma-ray flare of TXS 0506+056, an active galactic nucleus with a compact radio jet pointing to us.

We have almost daily observed the black hole candidate X-ray binary Swift J1727.8-1613 on 14-30 September 2023 with the ''Southern Sector and Flat mirror'' antenna and later from 1 October 2003 with the ''Northern Sector'' antenna of the RATAN-600 radio telescope (SAO RAS) using the similar radiometers at 4.7, 8.2, 11.2 and 22.3 GHz, but also we have 2.3 GHz radiometer at the second antenna.

Earlier, we showed that according to the nature of the location of sources of preflare X-ray pulsations relative to the main solar flare, events are divided into at least two types: in type I events, the sources of pulsations and the main flare are in the same active region (AR) and in type II events they are in different regions.

An important and interesting issue is brought to notice in the standard linear theory of the magnetoacoustic waves in the homogeneous magnetic flux tubes with an abrupt magnetic boundary, which are representative of the coronal, chromospheric, and photospheric loops of the solar atmosphere.

We have detected beginning of a bright flare from the microquasar GRS1915+105 in the daily monitoring of microquasars with the RATAN-600 radio telescope.

The Square Kilometre Array Observatory (SKAO) will explore the radio sky to new depths in order to conduct transformational science. SKAO data products made available to astronomers will be correspondingly large and complex, requiring the application of advanced analysis techniques to extract key science findings.

We have been carrying out daily observations of bright microquasars at 1.2–20 GHz with the Northern sector of the RATAN-600 radio telescope for more than ten years.

We study the broadband emission of the TeV blazar Mrk501 using multi-wavelength (MWL) observations from 2017 to 2020 performed with a multitude of instruments, involving, among others, MAGIC, Fermi-LAT, NuSTAR, Swift, GASP-WEBT, and OVRO.

We present the measurement results for the spectral flux densities of 19 calibration sources observed with the RT-22 single-dish telescope of the Crimean Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences at 22.2 and 36.8 GHz in 2017-2020.

Modern studies of solar radio emission are complicated by continuous power amplification and multifrequency external interference, which often completely overlap important frequency ranges.

The transition from the large-amplitude rapidly-decaying regime of kink oscillations of plasma loops observed in the corona of the Sun to the low-amplitude decayless oscillations is modelled.

We study the observed response of microwave radiation to the perturbation of a transversely inhomogeneous plasma slab, which is stretched along a uniform magnetic field, by a symmetric (sausage-mode) fast magnetosonic wave guided by the slab.

Jets may have contributed to promoting the growth of seed black holes in the early Universe, and thus observations of radio-loud high-redshift quasars are crucial to understanding the growth and evolution of the early supermassive black holes.

We present a study of the arcsecond-scale radio continuum and OH line emission of a sample of known OH megamaser (OHM) galaxies with z ≥ 0.15 using archival Very Large Array (VLA) data and also the results of our pilot Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) observations of 12 of these OHM galaxies.
