Scientific paper

We report the detection of the near-infrared counterpart to the X- ray transient and black hole candidate XTE J1856+053 (Marshall et al. 1996, IAUC #6504; Barret et al. 1996, IAUC #6519). This finding is based on follow-up observations of the currently ongoing outburst (Levine et al. 2007; ATel #1024) with the 6.5m Magellan Baade telescope at Las Campanas observatory.
