An article published in the journal "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society" reports the discovery of three odd radio circles, including a pair cataloged as RAD J131346.9+500320. The discovery was made by examining data collected during the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS) thanks to the collaboration of citizen scientists in the RAD@home program.
