Scientific paper

Phase-resolved ROSAT observations of the soft X-ray flux from V444 Cygni
confirm the orbital dependence of the flux suggested by analysis of
imaging proportional counter (IPC) observations. The X-ray behavior
suggests that a region of X-ray emitting gas exists between the 2 stars,
probably produced by a collision between the WR and O star winds.
