If confirmed, such a large value would severely challenge most of the equations of state of dense matter and put strong constraints to the formation scenarios of supermassive NSs. To confirm the expected value it is mandatory to identify the companion star to this unique object. From the analysis of Cycle 19 WFC3 images, we identified a promising candidate companion: it is a Blue Straggler Star (BSS) showing optical variability seemingly consistent with the orbital period of the system (P=20.55 d). However these data do not allow to precisely determine the BSS variability period and verify whether it coincides with the orbital period of the pulsar. Here we propose to perform time-resolved WFC3 observations in order to derive the BSS light curve with a temporal sampling appropriate for precisely and univocally establish its period and assess its coincidence with the pulsar orbital period. Once the candidate is confirmed, the light curve shape will constrain the orbital inclination and the mass ratio of the system. In turn, together with the companion mass estimated from stellar evolutionary tracks, this will yield the first direct estimate of the NS mass. Note that the prohibitive crowding conditions in the vicinity of the BSS prevent any attempt to perform ground-based observations or spectroscopic follow-ups. Hence the proposed project represents the only viable approach to solve the case of PSR 6440B, potentially leading to the discovery of the first known case of a BSS orbiting a MSP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Observations Description ------------------------ Observations are organized in 15 visits of 1 orbit each. The visits are grouped in 3 groups in order to proper sample different epochs of the target orbital period. 13410( 3) - 16-Sep-2013 15:10:36 - [ 2] In each orbit (with the only exception of the last two, where 2 short exposures are also planned in order to sample the bright population of the globular cluster), 2 long exposures in the optical filters F606W and F814W and 1 long exposure in the narrow filter F656N (CR-SPLIT=2) are planned. Dithering is performed by applying small offsets (via POS TARG keyword) to each exposure using a path already tested in the past. The target is located at the aperture UVIS1; with this configuration we are also able to sample the entire cluster core. We used appropriate visit orientation requirements in order to avoid contamination of spikes of a bright star close to the target. Parallel exposures with ACS/WFC (in F606W and F814W filters) are planned in each orbit.
