Scientific paper

The Batuski-Burns list of candidate superclusters was searched for X-ray emission in the HEAO 1 A-2 data base. No significant flux in excess of integrated member cluster emission was detected in directions associated with estimated supercluster centroids; a 3 sigma upper limit to the mean individual excess flux is 5 x 10 to the -12th ergs/sq cm/s. Implications of this bound are discussed in terms of fainter member clusters, hot diffuse gas, and active and normal galaxies. Prospects of supercluster observations related to future X-ray missions are also outlined.
