Abstract
WE report the detection of faint intermittent radio emission from the close binary star b Persei. Concurrent observations at 2,695 and 8,085 MHz were made with the NRAO interferometer on spacings of 900, 1,800 and 2,700 m. The total observing time was 14.4 h, mostly in short periods between February 7 and February 15, 1972. Further brief observations were obtained on April 28 and June 21, 1972.
