Scientific paper

We present periodicity analyses of recent observations of two-X-ray binaries made with the University of Adelaide's gamma-ray telescope at Woomera, South Australia. Vela X-1, which transits close to the zenith at Woomera, is observed with an energy threshold less than 1 TeV, and the results can be compared with other observations in the same energy region. On the other hand, Cygnus X-3 reaches a maximum elevation of 18 deg and our energy threshold is correspondingly high (about 100 TeV). Our 1989 data have previously been searched for evidence of the 12.6ms pulsar reported at TeV energies. We extend this analysis and include data from 1990.
