IP Catalog Update No. 4

The IP Catalog Version 2011a, released on 2011 Jan 5, contains the folloing changes compared with Version 2009a.

New Candidate IPs (9 objects)

  1. IGR J15529-5029 is a poorly studied INTEGRAL source which could be a CV or an X-ray binary.

  2. IGR J16547-1916 is an INTEGRAL source identified with an optical counterpart with a magnetic CV-like spectrum, with a 549+/-15 s period seen in the optical.

  3. AX J1740.2-2903 (=2XMM J174016.0-290337) is an INTEGRAL source identified with an optical counterpart with a magnetic CV-like spectrum, with a 623 s period seen in the X-rays and in the optical. Therefore, this is a good IP candidate, although some questions remain due to its X-ray spectrum which is unusual for an IP.

  4. AX J194939+2631 is an ASCA Galactic Plane survey source which has been identified with a CV without a strong He II 4686 line. It may be a low accretion rate IP.

  5. Swift J2138.8+5544 is a probable IP based on a CV-like optical spectrum and a 990 s X-ray period.

  6. Of the 6 additional INTEGRAL sources have been identified as CVs by Masetti et al 2010, one is IGR J16547-1916 (see above). I'm classifying IGR J04571+4527, 1RXS J080114.6-462324, IGR J12123-5802, and 1RXS J211336.1+542226 as "possible" IPs, but ignoring IGR J19552+0044 which looks like a polar to me, from the optical spectrum.

Changes in Confidence Level (6 objects)

  1. V2069 Cyg has been "confirmed" as an IP with the detection of the spin period (743.2s) in the XMM-Newton and RXTE data.

  2. AX J1700.1-4157 has been upgraded to "probable;" because of the faint IR counterpart and the presence of the 6.7 keV line.

  3. AX J1740.1-2847 has been upgraded to "probable;" because of the faint IR counterpart.

  4. AX J1820.5-1434 has been demoted to "doubtful;" because of the large spin-down.

  5. IGR J18173-2509 has been upgraded to "probable" following the detection of the 830.7 s X-ray period.

  6. SDSS J233325.92+152222.1 has been "confirmed" as an IP with the detection of the spin period (42 min) in the XMM-Newton data.
