BeppoSAX observations of EXO 0531-66 in outburst and X Persei

Description

We report temporal and spectral analysis of two Be/X-ray systems observed by the BeppoSAX NFI. EXO 0531-66 was in outburst during the BeppoSAX observation: it is not a well known source because it is not detectable during the low states and the outbursts are unforeseeable and at temporal distances of years. X Persei is a well known source, but the broad band spectrum, obtained for the first time from the BeppoSAX observation, revealed an unexpected complexity
