Abstract

Here we discuss experimental studies over long observation intervals (13 years) of the statistical stability of X-ray radiation from three astrophysical objects. It is found that all the studied radiation intensities are statistically unstable. The most stable oscillations are from the pulsar PSRJ 1012 + 5307. It is found that, over the whole observation interval, its oscillations are statistically stable with respect to the average, but unstable with respect to the standard deviation.
