Memorie della Recent results in High Mass X-ray Binaries

Abstract. Thanks to the Galactic plane monitoring performed by the INTEGRAL satellite in the first four years of observations, new interesting sources have been discovered. About 30% of these new X-ray sources have been identified with High Mass X-ray Binaries. Several of them are the new recognized class of the Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients, transient sources displaying short outbursts lasting only a few hours
