Extract

There is reasonably strong evidence to suggest that the periodic X-ray, radio and optical variable Cir X-1 is a highly eccentric orbit (e ~ 0.8), binary system comprising an OB supergiant primary and a compact object, probably a neutron star (Whelan et al. 1977; Haynes, Lerche and Murdin 1980).
