Pulse phase spectroscopy of Her X-1 with EXOSAT.
Abstract
During March/April 1984 Her X-1 has been observed in a series of 10 pointings spread approximately evenly through a 35 day cycle. The authors discuss the results of an analysis of pulse-profiles and source spectra. They propose that the interpulse of the 1.24 second variation is caused by a reflection of the primary beam from the inner edge of the accretion disk or a disk corona.
