| Abstract: | The identification and spectral characterization of the optical/infrared counterparts in X-ray binaries is an essential step to understand the physics of these systems. We report on the first infrared spectroscopy of three INTEGRAL X-ray binary sources which present high absorption. Our spectra show that almost all the significant features are in emission, consistent with a Be companion star. We correct the infrared excess taking into account the circumstellar envelope emission in order to obtain a refined estimation of the distance to the X-ray sources and their X-ray luminosities. Based on these results we discuss how their X-ray characteristics fit into the BeX-ray scenario. |
