XMM-Newton observation of the persistent Be/NS X-ray binary pulsar RX J0440.9+4431
N. La Palombara, L. Sidoli, P. Esposito +2
Many X-ray accreting pulsars have a soft excess below 10 keV. This feature has been detected also in faint sources and at low luminosity levels, suggesting that it is an ubiquitous…
A time-variable, phase-dependent emission line in the X-ray spectrum of the isolated neutron star RX J0822-4300
A. De Luca, D. Salvetti, A. Sartori +9
RX J0822-4300 is the Central Compact Object associated with the Puppis A supernova remnant. Previous X-ray observations suggested RX J0822-4300 to be a young neutron star with a we…
AGILE detection of Cygnus X-3 γ-ray active states during the period mid-2009/mid-2010
A. Bulgarelli, M. Tavani, A. W. Chen +70
Cygnus X-3 (Cyg X-3) is a well-known microquasar producing variable emission at all wavelengths. Cyg X-3 is a prominent X-ray binary producing relativistic jets, and studying its h…
Neutral pion emission from accelerated protons in the supernova remnant W44
A. Giuliani, M. Cardillo, M. Tavani +41
We present the AGILE gamma-ray observations in the energy range 50 MeV - 10 GeV of the supernova remnant (SNR) W44, one of the most interesting systems for studying cosmic-ray prod…
The discovery of the 401 Hz accreting millisecond pulsar IGR J17498-2921 in a 3.8 hr orbit
A. Papitto, E. Bozzo, C. Ferrigno +6
We report on the detection of a 400.99018734(1) Hz coherent signal in the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer light curves of the recently discovered X-ray transient, IGR J17498-2921. By a…
Characterization of a tagged -ray beam line at the DANE Beam Test Facility
P. W. Cattaneo, A. Argan, F. Boffelli +64
At the core of the AGILE scientific instrument, designed to operate on a satellite, there is the Gamma Ray Imaging Detector (GRID) consisting of a Silicon Tracker (ST), a Cesium Io…
