The thesis studies the X-ray emission from the Galactic compact objects (accreting neutron stars and black holes), using mainly the RXTE data. In particular following results have been included: spectral evolution of X-ray transients GRS 1739-278, XTE J1755-324, GS 1354-644, XTE J1748-288; the outburst and detailed spectroscopy of the anomalous X-ray Novae XTE J0421+560; study of the outburst of the millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 and stability of its spectrum; study of the SAX J1808.4-3658 pulse profile and relativistic distortions of the profile, the linear velocity of the emitting area on the surface of the neutron star SAX J1808.4--3658, inferred from our simplest model is about ~0.1c and the neutron star radius is about ~13 km; frequency resolved spectroscopy and its application to the hard state of Cyg X-1 and GX 339-4, correlations of the spectral and timing properties for Cyg X-1, GX 339-4 and possible connection to the disk-spheroid model of the accreting flow in the vicinity of the black hole.
