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 ksec HRC-I exposure .
Star 49 ( M _ { V } \sim 4.7 ) , suggested by Deutsch et al .
( 1998 ) as the optical candidate for the LMXB , is identified ( < 0.3 { } ^ { \prime \prime } ) not with the LMXB , but with another , newly detected source ( B ) .
Using archival HST images , we identify ( < 0.3 { } ^ { \prime \prime } ) the LMXB ( A ) and one of the remaining new sources ( C ) with blue variable optical counterparts at M _ { V } \sim 3.7 and 5.3 respectively .
The other new source ( D ) remains unidentified in the crowded cluster core .
In the 0.5-2.5 keV range , assuming a 5 keV thermal bremsstrahlung spectrum and N _ { H } = 5.5 \times 10 ^ { 20 } , source A has intrinsic luminosity L _ { X } \sim 5.3 \times 10 ^ { 35 } ergs s ^ { -1 } .
Assuming a 1 keV thermal bremsstrahlung spectrum , B has L _ { X } \sim 4.1 \times 10 ^ { 33 } ergs s ^ { -1 } , while C and D have L _ { X } \sim 8 \times 10 ^ { 32 } ergs s ^ { -1 } .
Source B is probably a quiescent LMXB , while source C may be either a luminous CV or quiescent LMXB .
