Scientific paper

Cyg X-3 is a High-Mass X-ray Binary (HMXB) with a 4.8 hour orbital period that is well-measured using the strong X-ray modulation exhibited by this system. Recently, a candidate third period at 31.4 days was reported in ATEL#3325 that was suggested to be caused by either a tertiary body in the Cyg X-3 system or a precessing disk. Both possibilities would have important implications for the interpretation of the gamma-rays detected from Cyg X-3 (Tavani et al.
