This is one of the 31 firmly-identified objects among the HGPS sources. Three possible associations are listed in Table A.9. "This is a
list of astronomical objects, extracted from catalogs of plausible counterparts, which are are found to be spatially coincident with the HGPS source":
- LS 5039 (EXTRA)
- 3FGL J1826.2-1450 (3FGL)
- 2FHL J1826.3-1450 (2FHL)
"EXTRA associations: For completeness, in addition to the associations obtained through the catalog-based, automatic procedure, we add a list of 20 extra
associated objects that are plausible counterparts for some HGPS sources and are not covered by the limited set of catalogs we use."
