Scientific paper

SAX J1748.2-2808, discovered with BeppoSAX in the Galactic Center (GC) region, is of particular interest due to the presence of a remarkably intense iron line with EW~1 keV. It is located in the field of the molecular cloud SgrD and is positionally coincident with an IRAS source. The nature of SAX J1748.2-2808 is uncertain and its very intense Fe K line emission, together with its highly absorbed spectrum,made it an unique object in the GC region. On the other hand, very recently the INTEGRAL satellite has discovered other objects similar to SAXJ1748.2-2808, with a highly absorbed spectrum and intense iron emission, like IGR J16318-4848. The proposed observation can discriminate between different possible origins for the X-ray emission from SAXJ1748.2-2808.
