Abstract
We have detected three new X-ray point sources, in addition to the known low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) X1832-330, in the globular cluster NGC 6652 with a Chandra 1.6 ks HRC-I exposure. Star 49 (M-V similar to 4.7), suggested by Deutsch and coworkers as the optical candidate for the LMXB, is identified (<0.<double prime>3) not with the LMXB, but with another, newly detected source (B). Using archival Hubble Space Telescope (HST) images, we identify (<0.<double prime>3) the LMXB (A) and one of the remaining new sources
