Scientific paper

We present astronomical observations recorded at a time resolution of < 1 microsecond with the Berkeley Visible Image Tube (BVIT) on the 10m Southern African Large Telescope (SALT). Objects of interest include low-mass X-ray binaries (e.g. GR Mus), which were observed simultaneously with the RXTE satellite. In addition, we show high time resolution data for the eclipsing binary systems of V895 Cen and CTCVJ1928.
BVIT will become a user instrument on SALT in 2012 and we present details of the system, its performance characteristics and how potential users may apply for telescope time.
