TL;DR: The Einstein X-ray Observatory (HEAO 2) as mentioned in this paper is a fully imaging focusing Xray telescope with an angular resolution of a few arc sec, a field of view of up to one deg, and a sensitivity several hundred times greater than previously available in any Xray astronomy experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of an X-ray star association in VI Cygni (CYG OB2)
F. R. Harnden,G. Branduardi,Martin Elvis,Paul Gorenstein,J. E. Grindlay,J. P. Pye,Robert Rosner,K. Topka,G. S. Vaiana +8 more
TL;DR: A group of six X-ray sources located within 0.4 deg of Cygnus X-3 has been discovered with the Einstein Observatory as mentioned in this paper, and five of them correspond to stars in the heavily obscured OB association VI Cygni.
Journal ArticleDOI
An X-Ray Survey of the Cygnus Region
TL;DR: X-ray scanning of Cygnus region with large area proportional counters flown on attitude-controlled sounding rocket was carried out by as discussed by the authors, where the proportional counters were mounted on attitude controlled sounding rocket.
Journal ArticleDOI
X-Ray Pulsations from Cygnus X-1 Observed from UHURU
Mayumi Oda,Paul Gorenstein,H. Gursky,E. M. Kellogg,Ethan J. Schreier,Harvey Tananbaum,Riccardo Giacconi +6 more
TL;DR: X ray pulsations from Cygnus X-1 observed from Uhuru satellite, suggesting exstar discovery as mentioned in this paper, suggest ex star discovery. But this is not the case in the case of the ex-star discovery.
Journal ArticleDOI
The spectrum of diffuse cosmic X-rays, 1-13 kev.
TL;DR: Cosmic X ray background measurements and Crab Nebula observation during sounding rocket flight were performed during a recent sounding rocket launch as discussed by the authors, and the Crab Nebula was observed during the flight of a sounding rocket.
