Title of the communication: Radio Observations of Galactic Bulge Hard X-ray Sources detected by SIGMA
Preliminary abstract (12 lines max.):
We present the current status of a VLA multi-epoch observation program of hard X-ray sources detected by the coded mask telescope SIGMA. The target sources are mainly located in the galactic bulge and they are likely to be binary systems containing a compact companion, either black hole or neutron star. Our goal is to identify the radio counterpart of these objects and to measure its position with arcsecond accuracy in order to allow further studies.
