Description:
Report on the X-ray intensity observations of Cygnus X-3 performed with the aid of the X-ray satellite, Uhuru, before and during the radio flare of early September 1972. An analysis of 32 transits of the source, obtained during the period August 19 to September 6, is presented. There is no indication of an intensity change coincident with the radio flare. It is concluded that whatever precipitated the radio flare did not have a significant impact on the X-ray emitting region. Other characteristics of Cyg X-3 are also discussed.
