Scientific paper

From a ROSAT HRI observation of Cygnus A (66 ksec), we find a second X-ray component approximately 5.5'' south-east of the nuclear source. We will discuss the relation of the source morphology to the optical and radio emission and evaluate the ``obscured quasar'' hypothesis for the nuclear emission on the basis of source intensity and limits to the variability.
