Scientific paper

We propose 11 observations with about 3.4 day spacing of the second eclipsing high mass X-ray binary in M33. We will search for pulsations of the source down to 200ms and for an expected long term modulation of the source similar to the 35 day cycle of Her X-1. The results will allow us to decide whether the compact object in the system is a neutron star or a black hole. The Doppler delay curve of pulsations, if present, combined with the well determined orbital period could provide the mass function of the system.
