The hard X-ray pulse profile of the transient source A 0535+26.
Abstract
Measurements of the 104 sec pulse profile of A0535+26 at energies near 50 keV are reported. The data were obtained with a balloon-borne detector system which was launched on May 22, 1975 with the objective to observe transient or periodic emissions from X-ray or gamma-ray sources. The presence of the source was detected by a superposed epoch analysis. The pulse profile of A0535+26 in two energy channels is presented in a graph.
