Scientific paper

The discovery of IGR J05007-7047 in the Large Magellanic Cloud is reported in Sazonov et al (2005, A&A, 444, 37), with a 17-60 keV flux of (12+/-2)E-12 erg/cm2/s. A Chandra observation allowed the identification of the counterpart as the bright blue star USNO-B1.00192-00057570 (Halpern ATEL#572) whose location is consistent with the distance of the LMC (Masetti et al 2006, A&A, 459, 21), suggesting that IGR J05007-7047 is a HMXB belonging to the LMC.
