    The main result of this paper settles the conjecture of Barbasch-Vogan [cf. \textit{D. Vogan}, Oral lectures at Bowdoin College, August, 1989]: For any irreducible admissible representation \(\pi\) of a linear reductive Lie group \(G_{\mathbf R}\), the associated cycle \(\text{Ass}(\pi)\) [attached to \(\pi \) in \textit{D. Vogan}, Invent. Math. 48, 75-98 (1978; Zbl 0389.17002)] coincides with the wave front cycle \(WF(\pi)\) [attached to \(\pi \) in \textit{D. Barbasch} and \textit{D. Vogan}, J. Funct. Anal. 37, 27-55 (1980; Zbl 0436.22011)] via the Kostant-Sekiguchi correspondence.
