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…

Testing the inverse-Compton catastrophe scenario in the intra-day variable blazar S5 0716+71, III. Rapid and correlated flux density variability from radio to sub-mm bands

L. Fuhrmann, T. P. Krichbaum, A. Witzel +22

The BL Lac object S5 0716+71 was observed in a global multi-frequency campaign to search for rapid and correlated flux density variability and signatures of an inverse-Compton (IC)…

Correlated Multi-Waveband Variability in the Blazar 3C~279 from 1996 to 2007

R. Chatterjee, S. G. Jorstad, A. P. Marscher +12

We present the results of extensive multi-waveband monitoring of the blazar 3C~279 between 1996 and 2007 at X-ray energies (2-10 keV), optical R band, and 14.5 GHz, as well as imag…

First time-series optical photometry from Antarctica

K. G. Strassmeier, R. Briguglio, T. Granzer +11

Beating the Earth's day-night cycle is mandatory for long and continuous time-series photometry and had been achieved with either large ground-based networks of observatories at di…

Magnetic Mixing in Red Giant and Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars

J. Nordhaus, M. Busso, G. J. Wasserburg +2

The available information on isotopic abundances in the atmospheres of low-mass Red Giant Branch (RGB) and Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars requires that episodes of extensive m…
