Scientific paper

The peculiar X-ray binary Cygnus X-3 has been observed on several occasions with the X/gamma-ray instruments on board INTEGRAL. We have collected data from available public and Galactic Plane Scan observations between December 2002 and December 2003 and summed them together into two broad-band spectra, representing different physical spectral states of the source. We have fitted the two spectra with models including Comptonization and Compton reflection, similar to those found for black-hole binaries at high accretion rates.
