Scientific paper

We have analyzed Uhuru X-ray observations of the Crab and found
statistically significant variability in the intensity on time scales of
several tenths of a second. Our results imply either that the X-ray
emission from the pulsar NP 0532 is highly variable or that we have
observed a previously undetected compact source of X-rays.
