Scientific paper

The INTEGRAL satellite is discovering a large number of new high energy sources in the Galactic plane. In most cases, the few arcminute INTEGRAL positions do not allow for identification of the "IGR" sources at other wavelengths, leaving their nature unclear. We propose to use Chandra to localize ten of the IGR sources found in the Norma region of the Galaxy, allowing us to study these sources at optical and IR wavelengths to determine if they are part of a new high energy population. Our group consists of people who have been actively involved in early IGR source studies and discoveries, and we use our long INTEGRAL observation of the Norma region to plan the proposed observations. In addition, we already have an ESO program in place for optical/IR follow-up of IGR sources.
