Abstract

The AM Her star CW1103+254 was observed with the low-energy and the medium-energy instruments of EXOSAT on 3 occasions for a total of 10.5 orbital cycles. Both, soft and hard X-rays from CW1103+254 were detected. We report preliminary results on the time variability of the X-ray emission on time scales from 1 minute to 1 month.
