Gravitational wave burst search in the Virgo C7 data
The Virgo Collaboration, F. Acernese
A search for gravitational wave burst events has been performed with the Virgo C7 commissioning run data that have been acquired in September 2005 over five days. It focused on un-…
Fermi LAT Observations of the Vela Pulsar
A. A. Abdo
The Vela pulsar is the brightest persistent source in the GeV sky and thus is the traditional first target for new gamma-ray observatories. We report here on initial Fermi Large Ar…
The June 2008 flare of Markarian 421 from optical to TeV energies
The Agile Collaboration, Webt Collaboration, Magic Collaboration +2
We present optical, X-ray, high energy ( GeV) and very high energy ( GeV; VHE) observations of the high-frequency peaked blazar Mrk 421 taken betwee…
Measurement of the branching ratio and search for a CP violating asymmetry in the eta -> pi+pi-e+e-(gamma) decay at KLOE
KLOE Collaboration, F. Ambrosino, A. Antonelli +57
We have studied the eta->pi+pi-e+e-(gamma) decay using about 1.7 fb^-1 collected by the KLOE experiment at the DAFNE phi-factory. This corresponds to about 72 millions eta mesons p…
Constraints on Primordial Non-Gaussianity from a Needlet Analysis of the WMAP-5 Data
Davide Pietrobon, Paolo Cabella, Amedeo Balbi +2
We look for a non-Gaussian signal in the WMAP 5-year temperature anisotropy maps by performing a needlet-based data analysis. We use the foreground-reduced maps obtained by the WMA…
Stau detection at neutrino telescopes in scenarios with supersymmetric dark matter
B. Canadas, D. G. Cerdeno, C. Munoz +1
We have studied the detection of long-lived staus at the IceCube neutrino telescope, after their production inside the Earth through the inelastic scattering of high energy neutrin…
Intersecting Attractors
S. Ferrara, A. Marrani, J. F. Morales +1
We apply the entropy formalism to the study of the near-horizon geometry of extremal black p-brane intersections in D>5 dimensional supergravities. The scalar flow towards the hori…
Search for double beta decay of Zinc and Tungsten with the help of low-background ZnWO4 crystal scintillators
P. Belli, R. Bernabei, F. Cappella +14
Double beta processes in 64-Zn, 70-Zn, 180-W, and 186-W have been searched for with the help of large volume (0.1-0.7 kg) low background ZnWO4 crystal scintillators at the Gran Sas…
Stückelino Dark Matter in Anomalous U(1)' Models
Francesco Fucito, Andrea Lionetto, Andrea Mammarella +1
We study a possible dark matter candidate in the framework of a minimal anomalous extension of the MSSM. It turns out that in a suitable decoupling limit the Stückelino, th…
Search for the K_S -> e+e- decay with the KLOE detector
The KLOE Collaboration, F. Ambrosino, A. Antonelli +63
We present the result of a direct search for the decay K_S -> e+e-, obtained with a sample of e+e- -> phi -> K_S K_L events produced at DAFNE, the Frascati phi-factory, for an inte…
Observation of an anomalous positron abundance in the cosmic radiation
O. Adriani, G. C. Barbarino, G. A. Bazilevskaya +48
Positrons are known to be produced in interactions between cosmic-ray nuclei and interstellar matter ("secondary production"). Positrons may, however, also be created by dark matte…
Two years of flight of the Pamela experiment: results and perspectives
M. Casolino, Pamela Collaboration
PAMELA is a satellite borne experiment designed to study with great accuracy cosmic rays of galactic, solar, and trapped nature in a wide energy range (protons: 80 MeV-700 GeV, ele…
AGILE observation of a gamma-ray flare from the blazar 3C 279
A. Giuliani, F. D'Ammando, S. Vercellone +56
Context. We report the detection by the AGILE satellite of an intense gamma-ray flare from the gamma-ray source 3EG J1255-0549, associated to the Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar 3C 279,…
High-Resolution Timing Observations of Spin-Powered Pulsars with the AGILE Gamma-Ray Telescope
A. Pellizzoni, M. Pilia, A. Possenti +67
AGILE is a small gamma-ray astronomy satellite mission of the Italian Space Agency dedicated to high-energy astrophysics launched in 2007 April. Its 1 microsecond absolute time tag…
A new measurement of the antiproton-to-proton flux ratio up to 100 GeV in the cosmic radiation
O. Adriani, G. C. Barbarino, G. A. Bazilevskaya +50
A new measurement of the cosmic ray antiproton-to-proton flux ratio between 1 and 100 GeV is presented. The results were obtained with the PAMELA experiment, which was launched int…
