dc.descriptionWe report on the results of a BeppoSAX observation of the dipping LMXRB EXO 0748-676 performed in 2000 November. This is the first simultaneous observation of this source over the 0.1-100 keV energy range. The persistent spectrum is complex and shows a soft excess, which requires the inclusion of an ionized absorber (with a sub-solar abundance of iron). A cutoff power-law is a good fit to the high energy part of the spectrum, with a photon index of 1.3 and a cutoff around 50 keV. The 0.1-100 keV luminosity is 8.2E36 erg/s.
