Optical counterpart of the XTE J0929-314 in quiescence: constraints on the magnetic field

We present VLT observations of the optical counterpart of th X-ray millisecond pulsar XTE J0929-314 in quiescence. We detected a very faint candidate in agreement with the position given by radio and X observation. From the observed optical flux we inferred un upper limit to the magnetic field of the system. © 2005 American Institute of Physics.
