Miscellaneous :

Sazonov et al. 2008 :

Probably associated to MCG -07-06-018, at z=0.0696

very faint in Chandra => Compton thick AGN?

Optical spectrum => X-ray bright, optically normal Galaxy

Masetti et al. 2009:

Optical spectroscopy

Hα and Hβ in absorption

Source is an X-ray bright optically normal galaxy
