    Miscellaneous :

    Krivonos et al. 2009 ATel 2170:
    • Swift follow-up => Spectral points only above 2 keV
    • Power law fit => Γ=-0.8 (-0.8, +0.6)
    • Source intrinsically absorbed
    • Faint R counterpart in DSS II plate
    Burenin et al. 2009 ATel 2193:
    • Only one source (I~18.7) found within Swift/XRT error box
    • Optical spectroscopy => H_alpha emission line at z=0,
    • Object is a Galactic X-ray binary
    • Optical continuum iconsistent with an absorbed OB-star
    • System is a high-mass X-ray binary.
    Lutovinov et al. 2012:
    • Optical observations
    • Galactic source either XRB or a CV
    Masetti et al. 2013 (A&A):
    • Optical / NIR observation + spectroscopy of counterpart
    • Hα Hβ and HeII in emission @ z=0
    • source is a CV
