Potential IP Candidates

There are some objects for which I have not put on the list of IPs and IP candidates, most often because of insufficient information. I would like to see further observational results before placing them on my scale from "doubtful" to "ironclad." These are:

  • Parisi et al. 2012 proposed that PBC J0826.3-7033 (= Swift J0826.2-7033 = 1RXS J082623.5-703142 = 1ES 0826-703) is a non-magnetic CV, based in part on their distance estimate of 90 pc. However, it is now known to be more distant (~350 pc), and hence more luminous.
  • Tomsick et al. (2012) published Chandra position of INTEGRAL sources including IGR J12489-6243, which they considered a possible CV, and IGR J15293-5609, which they thought was a symbiotic star. Fortin et al. (2018) considered both to be CVs based on IR observations. Little else is known for these sources.
  • Shears et al. 2015 considered the possibility that HW Boo is an IP.
  • Shears 2015 considered the possibility that 1RXS J140429.5+172352 is an IP.
  • Greiner & Richter 2015 speculated that their Sagitta Field source 120a (likely also the XMM Slew Survey source XMMSL1J201359.1+154419) with a variable (16.5-18.0 mag) blue counterpart may be an IP.
  • Lutovinov et al. 2015 proposed AX J173548-3207 (originally detected in the ASCA Galactic Plane survey, Sugizaki et al. 2001) to be a quiescent LMXB. They may well be right, but it's not easy to distinguish between qLMXBs and CVs with the sparse data available for this object.
  • Fornasini et al. 2014 considers AX J1637.8-4656 (another source from the ASCA Galactic Plane survey, Sugizaki et al. 2001) to be an IP candidate, even though the possible 7100 s period of this source would be extremely long to be the spin period of an IP.
  • Four sources from Tomsick et al. 2017 are of potential interest in this connection:
    • P49: NuSTAR J233426-2343.9 = 1RXS J233427.8-234419
    • P144: NuSTAR J073959-3147.8 = 3XMM J074000.5-314759
    • S27: NuSTAR J105008-5958.8 = 3XMM J105008.1-595902
    • P408: NuSTAR 182604-0707.9 = CXO J182604.6-070806
  • So are eight source from Fornasini et al. 2017
    • NNR4: CXOU J163750.8-465545
    • NNR6: CXOU J163355.1-473804
    • NNR9: CXOU J163912.9-462357
    • NNR12: CXOU J164027.8-462513
    • NNR13: CXOU J163957.8-46254
    • NNR18: CXOU J163329.5-473332 (see also Bodaghee et al. 2014)
    • NNR19: NuSTAR J164116-4632.2
    • NNR25: NuSTAR J163600-4748.4
  • Peng & Shen 2021 claimed that OGLE-UCXB-01 to be an IP.
