(something got messed up in the first version, sorry!) The RXTE X-ray lightcurve of Eta Car through March 30 is available at http://lheawww.gsfc.nasa.gov/users/corcoran/eta_car/etacar_rxte_lightcurve/ of special note: the PCU2 L1 rate dropped by 2.3 cts/s from the maximum on March 29 - see for example: http://lheawww.gsfc.nasa.gov/users/corcoran/eta_car/etacar_rxte_lightcurve/Images/pcu2_l1_time.png also the time between X-ray maxima has dropped to 23 days from its value of 80-100 days of a year ago, and 40-50 days recorded in the past year. cheers Mike -- *********************************************************** Dr. Michael F.
