Oracle-L: How to Determine Oracle Session ID given UNIX PID?

Oracle 7.3.4 running on AIX 4.3.3

The ps command on our AIX box shows a UNIX process taking 50% of the CPU. The PID is 89510. When I try to find the corresponding session on the Oracle database it returns no rows. Is there a way I can map the given PID on UNIX to a session id on Oracle? See below for the query I ran.

SQL> l

1 select sid from v$session

2* where process like '%89510%'

SQL> / no rows selected

Thanks for your information!
