Scientific paper

The binary pulsar PSR1913+16, supposedly a prime laboratory for gravitational radiation, may have an optically visible companion, or may be in a visible nebula. WFPC and FOC images will be used to improve the optical astrometry and to study the extension seen in the original images. Since this is such a uniquely important object for our understanding of gravitational radiation, it is crucial to make these definitive observations to clarify the existing uncertainty. If there is an optically luminous companion, or a nebula surrounding the pulsar, this will require modifications to the interpretation of the pulsar timing data.
