Description

A summary of results obtained from the first year of Ariel-5 All-Sky Monitor operation is presented. Transient source observations, as well as the results of long-term studies of Sco X-1, Cyg X-3 and Cyg X-1 are described. By example, the included results are indicative of the temporal effects to which the All-Sky Monitor remains sensitive as it begins its second year of observation. (author)
