		| Abstract: | 
		We present recent results of our program of deep optical and infrared observations of AXPs. We find that the counterpart to AXP 4U 0142+61 has a peculiar spectral energy distribution. The counterpart is remarkably bright in the near-infrared, but is not detected in the B band. We also present the possible detection of a second AXP counterpart, namely that to 1E 2259+586. |
