5. Conclusions

The spectrum appears to be modified by a component due to reflection by cold matter near the neutron star, probably the accretion disk. There are luminosity-induced variations in the pulse profile. It appears that this observation caught the source in the act of turning on (Day and Stevens (1993)).
