I disagree.
This is about the discovery of high energy electrons from an unknown nearby source. I asked if it might be a BD, citing research which shows some BDs to emit radio waves from high energy electrons, similar to pulsars and planets alike. And while the reference doesn't specify the high energy electrons as being 300-800Gev, it remains valid as a basis for my question, which was never answered.
