Scientific paper

Observations of the X-ray source Sco X-1 obtained with the Narrabri VHE atmospheric Cerenkov gamma-ray telescope during 1988 and 1989 are reported. The data are presented in tables and briefly characterized. In both years, an excess of counts was found which indicates a flux of 300-GeV gamma rays from Sco X-1 at the 3.1-sigma confidence level. This emission was not correlated with the 0.787-day orbital period, nor could any other type of periodicity be detected.
