A Flat-spectrum Radio Transient at 122 Mpc Consistent with an Emerging Pulsar Wind Nebula

We report the discovery and follow-up observations of VT 1137–0337, an unusual radio transient found in our systematic search for extragalactic explosions in the Very Large Array Sky Survey. It is located in the brightest region of a dwarf starburst galaxy at a luminosity distance of 121.6 Mpc. Its...
