Scientific paper

We propose to study a complete X-ray sample in the luminosity of 0.5-5 x 10^35 erg/s in the Galactic bulge, containing 10 unidentified sources detected in the ROSAT All Sky Survey. Our goal is to obtain, for the first time, a clear picture about X-ray populations in the bulge with detailed X-ray spectroscopic studies of these sources. This is a new step toward understanding the formation history of the bulge, and hence that of galaxies with various Hubble sequences in the universe. Furthermore, because the luminosity range we observe corresponds to a ``missing link'' region ever studied for a neutron star or blackhole X-ray binary, our results are also unique to test accretion disk theories at intermediate mass accretion rates.
