A candidate optical counterpart to the middle-aged gamma-ray pulsar PSR J1741-2054

R. P. Mignani, V. Testa, M. Marelli +7

We carried out deep optical observations of the middle-aged -ray pulsar PSR J1741-2054 with the Very Large Telescope (VLT). We identified two objects, of magnitudes $m_v=23.10\p…

A search for optical bursts from RRAT J1819-1458: II. Simultaneous ULTRACAM-Lovell Telescope observations

V. S. Dhillon, E. F. Keane, T. R. Marsh +10

The Rotating RAdio Transient (RRAT) J1819-1458 exhibits ~3 ms bursts in the radio every ~3 min, implying that it is visible for only ~1 per day. Assuming that the optical light beh…

Dark spot, Spiral waves and the SW Sex behaviour: it is all about UX Ursae Majoris

V. V. Neustroev, V. F. Suleimanov, N. V. Borisov +2

We present an analysis of time-resolved, medium resolution optical spectroscopic observations of UX UMa in the blue (3920-5250 A) and red (6100-7200 A) wavelength ranges, that were…

A search for optical bursts from the rotating radio transient J1819-1458 with ULTRACAM

V. S. Dhillon, T. R. Marsh, S. P. Littlefair

We report on the search for optical bursts from J1819-1458, a member of the recently discovered Rotating Radio Transients (RRATs). J1819-1458 exhibits 3 millisecond bursts with a p…
