Scientific paper

THE eclipsing variable LR Cen has been suggested1,2 as a candidate for the optical counterpart of Cen X-33 on the basis of the near coincidence of the position and period of LR Cen with those of Cen X-3. My observations4 and those of Kristian et al.1 show that in March, the time of eclipse of the secondary of LR Cen nearly coincided with that of Cen X-3. Also LR Cen and Cen X-3 both have orbits of low eccentricity; thus, LR Cen and Cen X-3 have similar positions, periods, phases and eccentricities.
