Abstract

We report the detection of a soft X-ray component in the spectrum of the transient X-ray pulsar EXO2030+375 at a high state in 1985. The spectrum of the soft X-ray component could be fitted by a blackbody with a temperature kT ∼1.1 keV and a radius of the emission areaR ∼ 3.6 - 6.1 km (assuming 5 kpc distance).
