The 6-18 keV and the 40-60 keV X-ray spectrum of Hercules X-1 were simultaneously observed with the A-2 experiment on HEAO-1. By combining these measurements with the results of an earlier observation of this X-ray pulsar, evidence was found for a component of emission above 40 keV which is above an extrapolation from lower energies, by a factor which depends on the phase of the pulse. These data were compared to previous hard X-ray observations and possible models were discussed.
