Scientific paper

Ariel 5 observations made in April 1977 provide the basis for a discussion of the variability of burst source MXB 1730-335. It is suggested that the bursts most likely result from the sudden accretion of material onto a compact star. The mean and the minimum burst intervals are observed to increase as the overall luminosity decreases, indicating that they may both be functions of the same mass accretion rate. An upper limit for the constant underlying source is set at 3 x 10 to the -10th erg/sq cm/s in the 2-10-keV band.
