Abstract
- We analyse 55 ks of Chandra X-ray observations of the Galactic globular cluster M13. Using the latest radio timing positions of six known millisecond pulsars (MSPs) in M13 from Wang et al. (2020), we detect confident X-ray counterparts to five of the six MSPs at X-ray luminosities of $L_X$(0.3-8 keV)$\sim 3 \times 10^{30} - 10^{31}~{\rm erg~s^{-1}}$, including the newly discovered PSR J1641+3627F. There are limited X-ray counts at the position of PSR J1641+3627A, for which we obtain an upper limit $L_X<br />9 pages, 5 figures, 3 tables.
