X-ray, optical and radio observations of A1710–34

Abstract

SAS 3 ROTATING modulation collimator (RMC) measurements are reported here which yield a new, more precise, position for the Ariel 5 X-ray source A1710–34 (ref. 1). We also report optical observations of stars in the X-ray error box and discuss evidence obtained with the Parkes 64m radio telescope for 2-cm radio emission from the vicinity of the X-ray source.
