Scientific paper
We have observed the star GSC 01060-01374 to investigate whether it is in a binary with PSR B1929+10. Its spectral type is K4-6 and its luminosity class is III or II, therefore its distance is 2.4 kpc or higher. Since the dispersion measure distance of PSR B1929+10 is 0.17 kpc, we rule out the possibility that these two stars are associated in a binary. This poses further constraints on the lower limit of kick velocities in supernova explosions. Based on observations made with the William Herschel Telescope operated on the island of La Palma by the Isaac Newton Group in the Spanish Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos of the Instituto de Astrofisica de Canarias.
