Scientific paper

The X-ray binary 'Hz Her/Her X-1' was monitored with the stereoscopic system of five imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs) of the HEGRA Collaboration (Ethr > 0.5 TeV) from August 1999 to August 2000. The 1999/2000 data have been collected during the anomalous low state (ALS) which ceased at the end of 2000. No DC signal has been observed. A search for a periodic emission resulted in a periodicity at an orbital phase of Φorb = 0.078 for one run (20 min.) with a chance probability of ≈ 10-1 . Further data are scheduled to be taken in 2001.
