TRAPUM tilings of two observations of NGC 1851, performed with MeerKAT on 2021 May 8 at L-band (left) and on 2021 May 21 at UHF-band (right), with similar telescope elevations. Both panels show the same portion of the sky, for an easier comparison of the area covered by the tilings in the two different bands. The ellipses show the tied-array beams up to 84% of their boresight power at their respective central frequencies, that is, 816 MHz for the UHF band, 1284 MHz for the L band. The blue ellipses show the beams that have been searched for this work. The dashed circle shows the half-mass radius of NGC 1851, located at 0.85 arcmin from the cluster center. The position of the previously known pulsar, NGC 1851A, is shown by the white cross.
