Scientific paper

Optical observations of the X-ray burst source MXB 1837 + 05 (Ser X-1) made at different observatories are discussed. Six X-ray bursts were detected with SAS-3 X-ray Observatory during these observations, but no simultaneous optical signals were seen during or after any of these bursts. For an assumed burst duration of 10 sec, the 3-sigma upper limits of the ratio of the detected energy in an optical burst to that in an X-ray burst range from 3 x 10 to the minus fifth to 6 x 10 to the minus fifth.
