CCDM J20215+3758B , the SIMBAD biblio

We present a high-energy study of the intriguing COS B γ-ray field, 2CG 075+00, in order to search for possible counterparts. New EGRET data show that the COS B emission probably corresponds to two localized γ-ray sources, 3EG J2016+3657 and 3EG J2021+3716. Spectral fits to these EGRET sources, assuming a power-law model, yield photon indices of ∼2 for each object. We examine archival ROSAT and ASCA X-ray data that overlap both EGRET error boxes and find several point sources in the region to a flux limit of approximately 6.5x10^–13 ergs.cm^–2.s^–1. We conclude that the most probable candidate for 3EG J2016+3657 is the compact, variable, flat-spectrum radio and millimeter source B2013+370 (G74.87+1.22), which has blazarlike properties. The other source, 3EG J2021+3716, remains unidentified.
