Scientific paper

An observation has been made of underground cosmic-ray muons, corresponding to a secondary flux of approximately 7 x 10 to the -11th/sq cm s, at a depth of 1800 m water equivalent, which appear to be initiated by Cygnus X-3. This identification is based on both direction and phase coherence. The existence of such secondary muons conflicts with the current understanding of photon cascades and/or the nature and location of Cygnus X-3.
