Science

Among others, observations of Sco X-1, Cir X-1, Cyg X-1, and A0620-00 were published from the Filin data. A highly variable low energy of 0.6 to 0.9 keV (96 to 144 aJ) flux was detected in Sco X-1. Cir X-1 was not detected at all during a July 5, 1975 observation, providing an upper limit on the emission of 3.5e-11 erg·cm-2·s−1 (35 fW/m²) in the 0.2 to 2.0 keV (32 to 320 aJ) range. Cyg X-1 was observed on several occasions. Highly variable flux, in both the time and energy domains, was observed.

Famous quotes containing the word science:

    Religions die when they are proved to be true. Science is the record of dead religions.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    Romance should never begin with sentiment. It should begin with science and end with a settlement.
