Long Term Study of the Double Pulsar J0737-3039 with XMM-Newton: pulsar timing
M. N. Iacolina, A. Pellizzoni, E. Egron +8
The relativistic double neutron star binary PSR J0737-3039 shows clear evidence of orbital phase-dependent wind-companion interaction, both in radio and X-rays. In this paper we pr…

The Fermi LAT collaboration, M. Ackermann, M. Ajello +139
We report for the first time a gamma-ray and multi-wavelength nearly-periodic oscillation in an active galactic nucleus. Using the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) we have discover…
VLT polarimetry observations of PSR B0656+14
R. P. Mignani, P. Moran, A Shearer +5
Optical polarisation measurements are key tests for different models of the pulsar magnetosphere. Furthermore, comparing the relative orientation of the phase-averaged linear polar…
Optical counterparts of undetermined type -ray Active Galactic Nuclei with blazar-like Spectral Energy Distributions
G. La Mura, G. Chiaro, S. Ciroi +4
During its first four years of scientific observations, the Fermi Large Area Telescope (Fermi-LAT) detected 3033 -ray sources above a 4 significance level. Although most of t…
Ten years of INTEGRAL observations of the hard X-ray emission from SGR 1900+14
L. Ducci, S. Mereghetti, D. Götz +1
We exploited the high sensitivity of the INTEGRAL IBIS/ISGRI instrument to study the persistent hard X-ray emission of the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1900+14, based on ~11.6 Ms of…
Search for extended gamma-ray emission from the Virgo galaxy cluster with Fermi-LAT
M. Ackermann, M. Ajello, A. Albert +118
Galaxy clusters are one of the prime sites to search for dark matter (DM) annihilation signals. Depending on the substructure of the DM halo of a galaxy cluster and the cross secti…
Deep view of the Large Magellanic Cloud with 6 years of Fermi-LAT observations
LAT Collaboration
The nearby Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) provides a rare opportunity of a spatially resolved view of an external star-forming galaxy in gamma-rays. The LMC was detected at 0.1-100Ge…
The tale of the two tails of the oldish PSR J2055+2539
Martino Marelli, Daniele Pizzocaro, Andrea De Luca +3
We analyzed a deep {\it XMM-Newton} observation of the radio-quiet -ray PSR J2055+2539. The spectrum of the X-ray counterpart is non-thermal, with a photon index of =2.36$\pm…
Gemini optical observations of binary millisecond-pulsars
V. Testa, R. P. Mignani, C. Pallanca +2
Milli-second pulsars (MSPs) are rapidly spinning neutron stars, with spin periods P_s <= 10 ms, which have been most likely spun up after a phase of matter accretion from a compani…
2FHL: The Second Catalog of Hard Fermi-LAT Sources
LAT Collaboration
We present a catalog of sources detected above 50 GeV by the {\it Fermi}-Large Area Telescope (LAT) in 80 months of data. The newly delivered Pass 8 event-level analysis allows the…
IKT 16: the first X-ray confirmed composite SNR in the SMC
Chandreyee Maitra, Jean Ballet, Miroslav Filipovic +4
Aims: IKT 16 is an X-ray and radio-faint supernova remnant (SNR) in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). A detailed X-ray study of this SNR with XMM-Newton confirmed the presence of a…
PSR J1906+0722: An Elusive Gamma-ray Pulsar
C. J. Clark, H. J. Pletsch, J. Wu +117
We report the discovery of PSR J1906+0722, a gamma-ray pulsar detected as part of a blind survey of unidentified Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) sources being carried out on the v…
