Recent observational results on X-ray bursts and burst sources are reviewed. Two distinct types of bursts, Type I and Type II bursts, are discussed in relation to the mass and radius of neutron stars and to the problems of unusual mass accretion in some burst sources.

Type
II. Accretion Powered Pulsars
