Scientific paper

Observations of the quasar 3C 273 made during 1975-77 have shown that the X-ray flux varied on a time scale of several months. No similar variation was present in radio and optical data taken at similar times. If this variation results from luminosity variations of a central compact object, then an upper limit of 4 x 10 to the 17th cm can be set on its dimensions.
