Gamma rays from the quasar PKS 1441+25: story of an escape

A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault, A. Archer +103

Outbursts from gamma-ray quasars provide insights on the relativistic jets of active galactic nuclei and constraints on the diffuse radiation fields that fill the Universe. The det…

Gamma-Ray Bursts at high and very high energies

F. Piron

Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are extra-galactic and extremely energetic transient emissions of gamma rays, which are thought to be associated with the death of massive stars or the merg…

Origin of the Proton-to-Helium Ratio Anomaly in Cosmic Rays

Nicola Tomassetti

Recent data on Galactic cosmic rays (CRs) revealed that the helium energy spectrum is harder than the proton spectrum. The AMS experiment has now reported that the proton-to-helium…

A recent change in the optical and γ-ray polarization of the Crab nebula and pulsar

Paul Moran, Gillian Kyne, Christian Gouiffes +5

We report on observations of the polarization of optical and γ-ray photons from the Crab nebula and pulsar system using the Galway Astronomical Stokes Polarimeter (GASP), the Hubbl…

The 1st Fermi Lat Supernova Remnant Catalog

Fabio Acero, Markus Ackermann, Marco Ajello +156

To uniformly determine the properties of supernova remnants (SNRs) at high energies, we have developed the first systematic survey at energies from 1 to 100 GeV using data from the…

AMS-02 in Space: Physics Results

Nicola Tomassetti

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02) is a particle physics experiment designed to study origin and nature of Galactic Cosmic Rays (CRs) up to TeV energies from space. With its…
