Description
A region of the sky covering the 2' by 2' error box of PSR 1913+16, a radio pulsar in a binary system, was searched for optical pulsations at the known pulsar frequency, and none were observed. We place an upper limit of 18.2 mag on any such pulsations. Within the smaller error box which has recently been suggested for this object, the limit is 19.2 mag
