Miscellaneous :

Tomsick et al. 2015 (ApJ):

Chandra observation => discovery of 18 sources in fov. The likely counterpart is CXOU J082941.0-425158
2MASX J08294112-4251582 is at 0.44" from CXOU source. J=14.0, H=12.5, Ks=12.3
Presence in WISE with m=6.4 @ 22.1μm.
A second NIR source ~ 16" that appears to be extended => The 2 sources might be a pair of interacting galaxies
Chandra spectrum => Absorbed power law, N_H=19 x 10²² cm-2, Γ~-0.8 but poorly constrained and highly degenerate.
Adding INTEGRAL spectrum =>N_H=60 x 10²² cm-2, Γ~1.5 typical of an AGN, possibly Sey 2
Possible (2σ significance) line at 6 keV => z=0.07
