Scientific paper

We present the results of a hard X-ray measurement of the binary source Her X-t, carried out with a balloon borne X-ray telescope consisting of two Multiwire Proportional Counters, having 900 cm2 sensitive area each and spectral resolution of 15 % and 24 % FWHM respectively at 60 keV. The source was observed during the "Mid-on" state.
Our data confirm the previously reported high energy emission line overimposed on the low energy thermal spectrum.
