Spectral analysis of IGR J01572-7259 during its 2016 outburst
N. La Palombara, P. Esposito, S. Mereghetti +3
We report on the results of the observation of IGR J01572-7259 during its most recent outburst in 2016 May, the first since 2008. The source reached a flux $f \sim 10^…
AGILE Observations of the Gravitational-wave Source GW170817: Constraining Gamma-Ray Emission from a NS-NS Coalescence
F. Verrecchia, M. Tavani, I. Donnarumma +39
The LIGO-Virgo Collaboration (LVC) detected, on 2017 August 17, an exceptional gravitational-wave (GW) event temporally consistent within with the GRB 1708117A…
Discovery of periodic dips in the brightest hard X-ray source of M31 with EXTraS
M. Marelli, A. Tiengo, A. De Luca +9
We performed a search for eclipsing and dipping sources in the archive of the EXTraS project - a systematic characterization of the temporal behaviour of XMM-Newton point sources.…
X-rays from the mode-switching PSR B0943+10
S. Mereghetti, L. Kuiper, A. Tiengo +15
New simultaneous X-ray and radio observations of the archetypal mode-switching pulsar PSR B0943+10 have been carried out with XMM-Newton and the LOFAR, LWA and Arecibo radio telesc…
Behind the dust curtain: the spectacular case of GRB 160623A
F. Pintore, A. Tiengo, S. Mereghetti +6
We report on the X-ray dust-scattering features observed around the afterglow of the gamma ray burst GRB 160623A. With an XMM-Newton observation carried out ~2 days after the burst…
AGILE detection of a candidate gamma-ray precursor to the ICECUBE-160731 neutrino event
F. Lucarelli, C. Pittori, F. Verrecchia +18
On July 31st, 2016, the ICECUBE collaboration reported the detection of a high-energy starting event induced by an astrophysical neutrino. We report here about the search for a gam…
Chandra monitoring of the Galactic Centre magnetar SGR J1745-2900 during the initial 3.5 years of outburst decay
F. Coti Zelati, N. Rea, R. Turolla +15
We report on 3.5 years of Chandra monitoring of the Galactic Centre magnetar SGR J1745-2900 since its outburst onset in April 2013. The magnetar spin-down has shown at least two ep…
AGILE Observations of the Gravitational Wave Source GW170104
F. Verrecchia, M. Tavani, A. Ursi +36
The LIGO/Virgo Collaboration (LVC) detected on 2017 January 4, a significant gravitational-wave (GW) event (now named GW170104). We report in this Letter the main results obtained…
A Systematic Analysis of the XMM-Newton Background: II. Properties of the in-Field-Of-View Excess Component
D. Salvetti, M. Marelli, F. Gastaldello +6
We present an accurate characterization of the particle background behaviour on XMM-Newton based on the entire EPIC archive. This corresponds to the largest EPIC data set ever exam…
A Systematic Analysis of the XMM-Newton Background: I. Dataset and Extraction Procedures
Martino Marelli, David Salvetti, Fabio Gastaldello +6
XMM-Newton is the direct precursor of the future ESA ATHENA mission. A study of its particle-induced background provides therefore significant insight for the ATHENA mission design…
Search for Gamma Ray Bursts with the ARGO-YBJ Detector in Shower Mode
B. Bartoli, P. Bernardini, X. J. Bi +69
The ARGO-YBJ detector, located at the Yangbajing Cosmic Ray Laboratory (4300 m a. s. l., Tibet, China), was a full coverage air shower array dedicated to gamma ray astronomy and co…
Narrow phase-dependent features in X-ray Dim Isolated Neutron Stars: a new detection and upper limits
A. Borghese, N. Rea, F. Coti Zelati +3
We report on the results of a detailed phase-resolved spectroscopy of archival XMM--Newton observations of X-ray Dim Isolated Neutron Stars (XDINSs). Our analysis revealed a narrow…
XMM-Newton and NuSTAR simultaneous X-ray observations of IGR J11215-5952
L. Sidoli, A. Tiengo, A. Paizis +3
We report the results of an XMM-Newton and NuSTAR coordinated observation of the Supergiant Fast X-ray Transient (SFXT) IGRJ11215-5952, performed on February 14, 2016, during the e…
The effect of X-ray dust-scattering on a bright burst from the magnetar 1E 1547.0-5408
Fabio Pintore, Sandro Mereghetti, Andrea Tiengo +3
A bright burst, followed by an X-ray tail lasting ~10 ks, was detected during an XMM-Newton observation of the magnetar 1E 1547.0-5408 carried out on 2009 February 3. The burst, al…
A multi-wavelength investigation of candidate milli-second pulsars in unassociated -ray sources
D. Salvetti, R. P. Mignani, A. De Luca +7
About one third of the 3033 -ray sources in the Third Fermi-LAT Gamma-ray Source Catalogue (3FGL) are unidentified and do not have even a tentative association with a known obje…
