Using radial velocity curves from time resolved spectroscopy Geier et al. (2006, astro-ph/0610467) recently identified 4 subluminous B (sdB) stars in close binaries with possible neutron star or black holes. However, none of these sources have any X-ray counterparts in the ROSAT all sky survey, as would be expected if the sources were actively accreting low-mass X-ray binaries. We searched for the X-ray counterpart of one of the sources, HE 0532-4503 with a ~1 ksec Swift XRT observation.
