TL;DR: In this paper, a spectral feature, apparently an absorption line, has been observed at an energy of 20.1 + or - 0.5 keV in the pulsed flux of the 3.61-s X-ray pulsar 4U 0115+63 by using the UCSD/MIT instrument on HEAO 1.

TL;DR: The results of hard X-ray observations of Sco X-1 by HEAO 1 and OSO 7 are reported in this paper, showing that the spectrum between 20 and 70 keV was consistent with thermal bremsstrahlung from a hot plasma at a temperature of 5.15 plus or minus 0.05 keV.
