Abstract:

INTEGRAL has discovered a new type of highly absorbed Galactic X-ray sources with column densities of 1e23 cm^-2 or more. This is larger than Galactic interstellar column density and much larger than the optical extinction would imply, so the absorbing material must be concentrated on X-ray source. These may form an entirely new class with a common origin, or may simply be the highly obscured tail of the distribution of High and Low Mass X-ray Binaries. We propose to observe three these sources along with two new possibilities from the Swift BAT survey. Our goal is to observe the hard X-rays with the HXD and Fe K lines with the XIS to simultaneously measure the total flux, column density, and line strengths, in order to better understand the physics behind these intriguing new sources.
