Scientific paper

Counting rate data for Sirius are presented with and without an X-ray blocking filter and compared to counting rates for pure UV stars. The unfiltered rate data for Sirius deviate by six standard deviations from the linear correlation curve of counts vs UV flux for the UV stars. Moreover, the filtered Sirius data lie very close to the curve. Thus Sirius is shown to be an X-ray emitting star.
