Abstract
Results are presented for time-resolved narrow-band photometry and spectrophotometry of X Per performed in an unsuccessful effort to confirm previously reported observations of 13.9-min pulsations in the intensity of the He II line at 4686 A. No features that are synchronous with a 13.9-min period are found in the optical data, and simultaneous X-ray observations of 3U 0352+30 are reported which show that a strong 13.9-min X-ray modulation was present during the optical photometry. Some implications of the X-ray periodicities observed for X Per are considered.
