High-resolution spectrum of Cygnus X-1

A high resolution spectrum of Cygnus X-1 in the 45 to 600 keV range is presented. The measurement was made by the HEAO 3 gamma ray spectrometer during 82 days in the fall of 1979 and spring of 1980, when the source was in its normal low state. Results of a search for narrow emission lines from the source are reported. The spectrum shows no significant narrow features. The 3 delta upper limit to a narrow 511 keV annihilation line is 3 x 0.0001 photons/sq cm/s. There is also no evidence in HEAO 3 broadband data above 500 keV for the broad annihilation feature observed by HEAO 1.
