Hermsen, W.

The ESA satellite COS-B viewed the Cyg-X region 7 times between November 1975 and March 1982. A search for periodic gamma-ray emission (E > 70 MeV) from Cyg X-3 at the characteristic ∼4.8 h period did not reveal the source. Combining all observations, the 2σ upperlimit (E > 70 MeV) on the flux for the phase interval in which X-ray emission h…
