An Optical Study of the Black Widow Population
The optical study of the heated substellar companions of black widow (BW) millisecond pulsars (MSPs) provides unique information on the MSP particle and radiation output and on the neutron star mass. Here we present an analysis of optical photometry and spectroscopy of a set of relatively bright BWs...
