Position

• Equatorial: 17^h12^m36.43^s, -24^d14^m44.7^s (J2000)
• Galactic: l=359.87, b=+8.74

Finding Chart:

Buckley et al (1995).

Brigntness:

Optical ; fx (2-10 keV)~5.2x10^(-11) ergs/cm/cm/s (ASCA)

Periods:

• Orbital: 3.43 hr period is inferred from the spin and sideband periods.
• Spin: 0.010737 d = 15.46 min = 927.66 s, from optical polarimetry.
• Others: 16.72 min =1003 s period dominates the emission lines, optical photometry, and X-ray photometry.

Inclination:

About 10^o?

Distance:

?

This appears to be the prototype diskless IP (indirectly proving that other IPs do have disks?). It's also polarized.
