Abstract: We report on our search for the optical counterparts of the Southern Hemisphere anomalous X-ray pulsar 1E 1048.1-5937 and the radio-quiet neutron stars in supernova remnants Puppis A, RCW 103, and PKS 1209-51/52. The observations were carried out with the new MIT/CfA MagIC camera on the Magellan-I 6.5-m telescope in Chile. We present deep multi-band optical images of the X-ray error circles for each of these targets and discuss the resulting candidates and limits.
