Abstract: We present results obtained from a Suzaku observation of the accretion powered X-ray pulsar GX 1+4. Broad-band continuum spectrum of the pulsar was found to be better described by a simple model consisting of a blackbody component and an exponential cutoff power-law than the previously used compTT continuum model. Though the pulse profile had a sharp dip in soft X-rays ($<br />Comment: 19 pages, 12 figures, 4 tables
