Scientific paper

Two X-ray telescopes were tested aboard Salyut-7. The two instruments were the RS-17, and the GSPS. The X-ray sources, particularly in the Crab Nebulae and the Cygnus constellation, were observed spectrometrically. It is found that the two telescopes complement one another, the GSPS has high resolving power while the RS-17 receives the hard X-ray radiation. It is suggested that X-ray radiation accompanies the final stage of the evolution of certain stars and the processes which lead to the death of giant stars.
