Scientific paper

It is now generally appreciated that the space velocities of compact objects (pulsars, magnetars, LMXBs and black hole binaries) directly inform us of their origin and constrain their lifetime. Here, we report of a proper motion program that we been carrying out using the adaptive optics system at Palomar (natural guide star) and Keck (laser guide star). We also report on IR identifications of magnetars. This program is a precursor of the program we hope to undertake with the Space Interferometer Mission.
