Scientific paper

INTEGRAL has accumlated nearly 2 years of data for the survey of the Galactic plane; coverage has been concentrated on the Galactic centre region and large numbers of LMXBs have been discovered. The exposure is now steadily building up along other regions of the Galactic plane. This will inevitably mean that more HMXBs will become visible so that comparable numbers of these younger systems may be investigated. We request XMM observing time to find counterparts for 4 unidentified persistent INTEGRAL sources discovered by IBIS/ISGRI, clustered in a region tangential to a spiral arm, and thus are good HMXB candidates. We plan to measure their X-ray spectra and position to permit follow up studies in the optical/IR bands and thus identify the true nature of the underlying system.
