On the Symbiotic X-Ray Binary Nature of the Star CGCS 5926

We report on multiwavelength (from X-ray to optical) follow up observations of a carbon star CGCS 5926, motivated by the fact that it is positionally coincident with a faint X-ray source of the ROSAT catalog, thus suggesting its possible symbiotic X-ray binary (SyXB) nature. Our optical spectroscopy...
