Abstract

Results of the observations of SN 1987A from Ginga are presented. The first detection of X-rays from the SN 1987A was July, 1987. The energy spectrum is quite unnusual for any of the known classes of X-ray sources, and apparently consists of two seperate components; a soft and a hard component. The soft component is significantly time-variable, and also showed a flarelike increase in January, 1988. Whereas, the intensity of the hard component has remained fairly stationary for more than 300 days. The origins of the two components are also discussed.
