Abstract We report the results of timing and spectral analysis of the x-ray pulsar EXO2030+375. The observations were made using the Rossi x-ray timing explorer space satellite. The spectral analysis is carried out for the flux of x-ray energy range 3-30 keV. The x-ray continuum spectra of proportional counter array could be represented by a two-component model, a power law with an exponential cutoff at higher energies and a blackbody. An iron line at about 6.4-6.6 keV was also detected.
