Scientific paper

The X-ray position of Large Magelllanic Cloud (LMC) X-1, derived from
multiple ROSAT-High Resolution Imager (HRI) observations confirms that
the optical counterpart is a peculiar O7 III star, known as #32 (Cowley
1978). This resolves a long-standing uncertainty whether this star or
the nearby supergiant R148 is associated with LMC X-1.
