Scientific paper

Recent RXTE All-Sky Monitor (ASM) measurements of the X-ray flux of Her X-1 (= HZ Her) suggest that the source has exited the anomalous low state (ALS) and is again exhibiting long-term variability with a period near 35 days. Current (MJD 53196.8) RXTE ASM average count rates are above 5 counts/s, whereas during ALS the ASM rate is typically below 2 counts/s at every long term phase. (One Crab=75 counts/s in the ASM).
