Scientific paper

While significant progress is being made on identifying the nature of the numerous hard X-ray IGR sources that have been discovered by the INTEGRAL satellite, a significant fraction still remain unclassified. Our group has been focusing on studies of the IGR sources in the Galactic plane, many of which are High Mass X-ray Binaries with extreme properties, such as strong variability and very high levels of local absorption. For both IGR J01363+6610 and IGR J17507--2856, short Chandra observations have left several possible but no definite counterparts, and we propose XMM-Newton observations of these two sources to find the correct soft X-ray counterpart.
