Gamma rays from the quasar PKS 1441+25: story of an escape
A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault, A. Archer +103
Outbursts from gamma-ray quasars provide insights on the relativistic jets of active galactic nuclei and constraints on the diffuse radiation fields that fill the Universe. The det…
Multiwavelength Study of Quiescent States of Mrk 421 with Unprecedented Hard X-Ray Coverage Provided by NuSTAR in 2013
M. Baloković, D. Paneque, G. Madejski +305
We present coordinated multiwavelength observations of the bright, nearby BL Lac object Mrk 421 taken in 2013 January-March, involving GASP-WEBT, Swift, NuSTAR, Fermi-LAT, MAGIC, V…
First NuSTAR Observations of Mrk 501 within a Radio to TeV Multi-Instrument Campaign
A. Furniss, K. Noda, S. Boggs +273
We report on simultaneous broadband observations of the TeV-emitting blazar Markarian 501 between 1 April and 10 August 2013, including the first detailed characterization of the s…
VERITAS detection of -ray flaring activity from the BL Lac object 1ES 1727+502 during bright moonlight observations
S. Archambault, A. Archer, M. Beilicke +80
During moonlit nights, observations with ground-based Cherenkov telescopes at very high energies (VHE, GeV) are constrained since the photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) in the te…
Pulse properties of terrestrial gamma-ray flashes detected by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor
Suzanne Foley, Gerard Fitzpatrick, Michael S. Briggs +17
The Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has triggered on over 300 terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) since its launch in June 2008. With 14…
Compton scattering in terrestrial gamma-ray flashes detected with the Fermi gamma-ray burst monitor
Gerard Fitzpatrick, Eric Cramer, Sheila McBreen +11
Terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) are short intense flashes of gamma rays associated with lightning activity in thunderstorms. Using Monte Carlo simulations of the relativistic…
