Probing the Puzzle of Behind-the-Limb -ray Flares: Data-driven Simulations of Magnetic Connectivity and CME-driven Shock Evolution
Meng Jin, Vahe Petrosian, Wei Liu +8
Recent detections of high-energy -rays from behind-the-limb (BTL) solar flares by the \emph{Fermi -ray Space Telescope} pose a puzzle and challenge on the particle accelera…
Fermi-LAT observations of the 2017 September 10 solar flare
Nicola Omodei, Melissa Pesce-Rollins, Francesco Longo +2
The Fermi-Large Area Telescope (LAT) detection of the X8.2 GOES class solar flare of 2017 September 10 provides for the first time observations of a long duration high-energy gamma…
Fermi Large Area Telescope observations of high-energy gamma-ray emission from behind-the-limb solar flares
Melissa Pesce-Rollins, Nicola Omodei, Vahe' Petrosian +3
Fermi-LAT >30 MeV observations have increased the number of detected solar flares by almost a factor of 10 with respect to previous space observations. These sample both the impuls…
First detection of >100 MeV gamma rays associated with a behind-the-limb solar flare
Melissa Pesce-Rollins, Nicola Omodei, Vahe' Petrosian +4
We report the first detection of >100 MeV gamma rays associated with a behind-the-limb solar flare, which presents a unique opportunity to probe the underlying physics of high-ener…
Search for Spatially Extended Fermi-LAT Sources Using Two Years of Data
Joshua Lande, Markus Ackermann, Alice Allafort +10
Spatial extension is an important characteristic for correctly associating gamma-ray-emitting sources with their counterparts at other wavelengths and for obtaining an unbiased mod…
