On the periodical very high energy gamma-ray emission from Cyg X-3

The period of very high energy (E>2×10¹² eV) gamma-ray emission of Cyg X-3 by using the data of observations of the source made during 6 years, 1972–1977, was specified. The value of the period is equal to 0.199 683±1×10^–6 days. Phase histogram reveals two peaks, one lagging the other by 0.6 of the period. The averaged 6 year data amounts to 1.8×10^–10 quanta cm^–2 s^–1 (peak intensity). It corresponds to luminosity of about 1.2×10³⁷ erg s^–1 if one assumes that an emission is isotropical and the distance is equal to 10 kpc.
