Optical photometry of two transitional millisecond pulsars in the radio pulsar state

James G. Stringer, Rene P. Breton, Colin J. Clark +7

We present ULTRACAM multiband optical photometry of two transitional millisecond pulsars, PSR J1023+0038 and PSR J12274853, taken while both were in their radio pulsar states. T…
