Scientific paper

The discovery of the binary period and the high radial velocity amplitude of the optical counterpart of the X-ray source LMC X-3 (Cowley et al., 1983) provided strong evidence for the existence of a black hole in this system (Cowley et al., 1983; Paczynski, 1983). In this paper the authors comment on some further observational data that are needed to establish the black hole assumption for LMC X-3.
