Scientific paper

The region of sky containing OAO1653-40 have been observed simultaneously with the Einstein and Copernicus satellites in 1979 August. A best position of RA = 254.318 degrees, Dec = -41.577 degrees (1950) and a period of 38.019 + or - 0.009 sec were obtained for the X-ray pulsar discovered by White and Pravdo. The X-ray spectrum shows considerable photoelectric absorption with an equivalent hydrogen column density of 2.3 x 10 to the 23rd atom per sq cm. An upper limit to any 0.5-3.0 keV flux from V861 Sco of (4 + or - 1) x 10 to the -13th erg /sq cm/sec was also obtained.
