Scientific paper

UBV mean light curves of HZ Her were analyzed to elucidate the optical
structure of the accretion disk (AD) surrounding the neutron star. The
AD has a radius that is about 0.6 of the Roche lobe radius of the
neutron star, and the bolometric intensity is 10 to the 35th erg/sec,
which is about 1 percent of the X-ray luminosity.
