Scientific paper

To date more than 40 new bright hard X-ray Galactic plane sources have been discovered with INTEGRAL, and 10 of them have follow-up observations with XMM-Newton or Chandra. In most cases, the X-ray data exhibit slow pulsations, and the absorbing column density appear much larger than expected in the Galaxy or in front of the companion star. Many of those sources are persistent and seem to belong to a new class of HMXB, with a slow pulsar orbiting in a dense circumstellar material or within the companion stellar envelope itself. The goal of this proposal is twofold. We propose (1) to observe several additional persistent new INTEGRAL sources and (2) to study more in depth a few already studied sources.
