Scientific paper

Results are presented for HEAO A-2 pointed observations and Ariel 5 A11-Sky Monitor observations of the X-ray transient 4U 0115 + 63. The transient source pulses with a period of 3.6136 s + or - 0.0004 s, has a hard spectrum typical of an X-ray binary pulsar, and has a broad iron line emission feature. A discussion of the transient behavior is given, and inferences are made concerning the nature of the X-ray source based on the pointed data.
