Suzaku observes weak flares from IGR J17391-3021 representing a common low-activity state in this SFXT
A. Bodaghee, J. A. Tomsick, J. Rodriguez +4
We present an analysis of a 37-ks observation of the supergiant fast X-ray transient (SFXT) IGR J17391-3021 (=XTE J1739-302) gathered with Suzaku. The source evolved from quiescenc…
Confirmation of the Supergiant Fast X-ray Transient nature of AX J1841.0-0536 from Swift outburst observations
P. Romano, V. Mangano, G. Cusumano +8
Swift observed an outburst from the supergiant fast X-ray transients (SFXT) AX J1841.0-0536 on 2010 June 5, and followed it with XRT for 11 days. The X-ray light curve shows an ini…
The exposure of the hybrid detector of the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration
The Pierre Auger Observatory is a detector for ultra-high energy cosmic rays. It consists of a surface array to measure secondary particles at ground level and a fluorescence detec…
The Palermo Swift-BAT hard X-ray catalogue III. Results after 54 months of sky survey
G. Cusumano, V. La Parola, A. Segreto +10
We present the Second Palermo Swift-BAT hard X-ray catalogue obtained by analysing data acquired in the first 54 months of the Swift mission. Using our software dedicated to the an…
Two years of monitoring Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients with Swift
P. Romano, V. La Parola, S. Vercellone +10
We present two years of intense Swift monitoring of three SFXTs, IGR J16479-4514, XTE J1739-302, and IGR J17544-2619 (since October 2007). Out-of-outburst intensity-based X-ray (0.…
The 2008 October Swift detection of X-ray bursts/outburst from the transient SGR-like AXP 1E 1547.0-5408
G. L. Israel, P. Esposito, N. Rea +17
We report on the detailed study of the 2008 October outburst from the anomalous X-ray pulsar (AXP) 1E 1547.0-5408 discovered through the Swift/Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) detection…
The Swift-BAT hard X-ray sky monitoring unveils the orbital period of the HMXB IGR J16493-4348
G. Cusumano, V. La Parola, P. Romano +3
IGR J16493-4348 is a supergiant high mass X-ray binary discovered by INTEGRAL in 2004. The source is detected at a significance level of standard deviations in the Swift-B…
Detection of an orbital period in the supergiant high mass X-ray binary IGR J164654507 with Swift-BAT
V. La Parola, G. Cusumano, P. Romano +3
We analysed the IGR J16465-4507 Burst Alert Teelescope survey data collected during the first 54 months of the Swift mission. The source is in a crowded field and it is revealed th…
Discovery of a new Soft Gamma Repeater, SGR J1833-0832
E. Gogus, G. Cusumano, A. J. Levan +20
On 2010 March 19, the Swift/Burst Alert Telescope triggered on a short burst with temporal and spectral characteristics similar to those of Soft Gamma Repeater (SGR) bursts. The so…
Unveiling the origin of X-ray flares in Gamma-Ray Bursts
G. Chincarini, J. Mao, R. Margutti +10
We present an updated catalog of 113 X-ray flares detected by Swift in the ~33% of the X-ray afterglows of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRB). 43 flares have a measured redshift. For the first…
Gamma ray flares from Mrk421 in 2008 observed with the ARGO-YBJ detector
G. Aielli et al.
In 2008 the blazar Markarian 421 entered a very active phase and was one of the brightest sources in the sky at TeV energies, showing frequent flaring episodes. Using the data of A…
Early X-ray and optical observations of the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 0418+5729
P. Esposito, G. L. Israel, R. Turolla +13
Emission of two short hard X-ray bursts on 2009 June 5 disclosed the existence of a new soft gamma-ray repeater, now catalogued as SGR 0418+5729. After a few days, X-ray pulsations…
Measurement of the energy spectrum of cosmic rays above 10^18 eV using the Pierre Auger Observatory
The Pierre Auger Collaboration
We report a measurement of the flux of cosmic rays with unprecedented precision and statistics using the Pierre Auger Observatory. Based on fluorescence observations in coincidence…
Unveiling the hard X-ray spectrum from the "burst-only" source SAX J1753.5-2349 in outburst
Melania Del Santo, Lara Sidoli, Patrizia Romano +4
Discovered in 1996 by BeppoSAX during a single type-I burst event, SAX J1753.5-2349 was classified as "burst-only" source. Its persistent emission, either in outburst or in quiesce…
