Observing Notes
Harold Corwin
IC 4582 appears to have a star superposed just about 1 arcsecond northeast of the nucleus. The 2MASS PSC resolves them, and both can be seen in the SDSS image (the SDSS position is a conflation of the nucleus and the star). The SDSS spectrum for the star suggests a spectral type M, probably a dwarf. Those with more experience with stellar spectra than I will be able to elaborate on this.
