Discovery of the infrared counterpart of CXOUJ174437.3-323222 in the field of IGR J17448-3232: a blazar candidate viewed through the Galactic Centre?

We present our near-infrared ESO-NTTKS band observations of the field of IGRJ17448-3232which show no extended emission consistent with the supernova remnant (SNR), but in whichwe identify a new counterpart, also visible in Spitzer images up to 24 µm, at the position of theX-ray point source, CXOUJ17...
