Chandra X-ray and Gemini near-infrared observations of the eclipsing millisecond pulsar SWIFT J1749.4-2807 in quiescence

We report on Chandra X-ray and Gemini-North near-infrared K-band observations of the eclipsing accretion-powered millisecond X-ray pulsar SWIFT J1749.4−2807 in quiescence. Using the Chandra observation we derive a source position of right ascension 17:49:31.73 and declination −28:08:05.08. The posit...
