Abstract:
Through an optical campaign performed at four telescopes located in
the northern and the southern hemispheres, we obtained optical
spectroscopy for 75 counterparts of unclassified or poorly studied
hard X-ray emitting objects detected with Swift/Burst Alert Telescope
(BAT) and listed in the 54 month Palermo catalogue.
All these objects also have observations taken with Swift/X-ray
Telescope (XRT) or Chandra satellites, which allowed us to reduce the
high-energy error box and pinpoint the most likely optical
counterparts.
Description:
The following telescopes were used for the optical spectroscopic
study presented here:
* the 1.5m at the Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory (CTIO), Chile
* the 1.52m "Cassini" telescope of the Astronomical Observatory of
Bologna, in Loiano, Italy
* the 1.82m "Copernicus" telescope of the Astronomical Observatory of
Asiago, Italy
* the 2.1m telescope of the Observatorio Astronomico Nacional in
San Pedro Martir, Mexico

Note (1): Peculiar classes (non-Seyfert galaxies):
CV = Cataclysmic Variable (binary)
Starb. Gal = Starburst galaxy
LINER = Low-Ionization Nuclear Emission-line Region
NLS1 = Narrow-line Seyfert 1
XBONG = X-ray bright, optically normal galaxies
Trans.obj = transition object. These sources are likely LINERs whose
integrated spectra are diluted or contaminated by neighbouring
HII regions
