Abstract

An improved X-ray polarimeter is briefly described and preliminary results of the measurements carried out on the satellite ‘Intercosmos-7’ are presented. One flare with considerable polarization (P⩾ 16%) was observed on 1972 August 4. Two other flares with rather low polarization (P ≈ 4%; P ⩾ 2%) were observed on 1972 August 7 and 11.
