Prospects for -ray observations of the Perseus galaxy cluster with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Consortium, :, K. Abe +564
Galaxy clusters are expected to be dark matter (DM) reservoirs and storage rooms for the cosmic-ray protons (CRp) that accumulate along the cluster's formation history. Accordingly…
Multi-messenger and transient astrophysics with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Ž. Bošnjak, A. M. Brown, A. Carosi +142
The discovery of gravitational waves, high-energy neutrinos or the very-high-energy counterpart of gamma-ray bursts has revolutionized the high-energy and transient astrophysics co…
The brightest gamma-ray flaring blazar in the sky: AGILE and multi-wavelength observations of 3C 454.3 during November 2010
S. Vercellone, E. Striani, V. Vittorini +84
Since 2005, the blazar 3C 454.3 has shown remarkable flaring activity at all frequencies, and during the last four years it has exhibited more than one gamma-ray flare per year, be…
Calibrating the power of relativistic jets
L. Foschini, M. L. Lister, T. Hovatta +12
There are several methods to calculate the radiative and kinetic power of relativistic jets, but their results can differ by one or two orders of magnitude. Therefore, it is necess…
The Bright -ray Flare of 3C 279 in June 2015: AGILE Detection and Multifrequency Follow-up Observations
C. Pittori, F. Lucarelli, F. Verrecchia +44
We report the AGILE detection and the results of the multifrequency follow-up observations of a bright -ray flare of the blazar 3C 279 in June 2015. We use AGILE-GRID and Fermi…
LOFT: the Large Observatory For X-ray Timing
M. Feroci, J. W. den Herder, E. Bozzo +245
The LOFT mission concept is one of four candidates selected by ESA for the M3 launch opportunity as Medium Size missions of the Cosmic Vision programme. The launch window is curren…
