However to date, no infrared studies have been reported. Our aims are to identify and investigate the near-infrared (NIR) counterpart of 4U 1636-53. We present deep, K_s-band (2.2 micron) imaging of the region of 4U 1636-53 taken with the Infrared Spectrometer And Array Camera (ISAAC) on the Very Large Telescope. Archival optical and UV data are used to infer the 0.2-2.2 micron spectral energy distribution (SED).
