Scientific paper

These observations qualitatively confirm the observation of gamma rays from the X-ray source Cyg X-3 by the Crimean Observatory group. Observations were made in drift scans lasting 30 minutes each: 10 minutes before the source entered the field (OFF), 10 minutes in the field (ON), and a final 10 minutes outside the field (OFF). The ratios of ON/OFF rates are close to unity except at the phase interval from 0.7 to 0.8, which has a 3.5 sigma deviation from unity. It is noted that the phase of the peak corresponds to the maximum emission for lower energy gamma rays and for X-rays.
