Extract
The star MWC 84 (CI Cam) was first discovered to be an emission line object classified Bep (Merrill & Burwell, 1933), then classified as a symbiotic star and finally identified as the possible optical counterpart of the X-ray transient XTE J0421+560 (Wagner & Starrfield, 1998)
We have observed MWC 84 at the Haute Provence Observatory (CNRS) with a resolution of about 1.3 Å in 1992 (wavelength regions Hα and near infrared), 1998 and 1999 (from 4080 to 8880 Å).
