Scientific paper

Radial-velocity measurements for the principal emission features in Sco X-1 spectrograms are discussed. Plots of the radial velocities of H-alpha, H-beta, and He II at 4686 A as a function of phase for the 0.787313-day period are presented. In spite of the large scatter in the data, the time-dependent behavior of the radial velocities for the Balmer lines appears to confirm the binary nature of Sco X-1. In contrast to a previous report, no periodic variation in the radial velocity of the He II line at 4686 A is observed.
