Scientific paper

Results of three year observations of the active radio galaxy and X-ray source Cen A (NGC-5128) are reported. The Narrabri optical reflectors were used to detect the atmospheric Cerenkov light from extensive air showers with the double-beam technique allowing partial cosmic ray rejection. An improved timing system was employed and detected pulse heights were recorded so that spectral information is available. Preliminary results are presented, including evidence for the detection of Cen A(NGC-5128). Possible source models and some implications are discussed.
