General physical properties of bright Fermi blazars
G. Ghisellini, F. Tavecchio, L. Foschini +3
We studied all blazars of known redshift detected by the Fermi satellite during its first three months survey. For the majority of them, pointed Swift observations ensures a good m…
The blazar S5 0014+813: a real or apparent monster?
G. Ghisellini, L. Foschini, M. Volonteri +4
A strong hard X-ray luminosity from a blazar flags the presence of a very powerful jet. If the jet power is in turn related to the mass accretion rate, the most luminous hard X-ray…
Multiwavelength observation of the blazar 1ES1426+428 in May-June 2008
E. Leonardo, D. Bose, N. Mankuzhiyil +6
We present the results of the multiwavelength observation of the high frequency-peaked BL Lac object 1ES1426+428 carried in May-June 2008 with the KVA telescope for the optical ban…
Early Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope Observations of the Quasar 3C 454.3
LAT Collaboration, A. A. Abdo
This is the first report of Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope observations of the quasar 3C 454.3, which has been undergoing pronounced long-term outbursts since 2000. The data from…
Fermi/LAT discovery of gamma-ray emission from the flat-spectrum radio quasar PKS 1454-354
LAT Collaboration, A. A. Abdo, P. G. Edwards +4
We report the discovery by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) onboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope of high-energy gamma-ray (GeV) emission from the flat-spectrum radio quasar PK…
GRB Observed by IBIS/PICsIT in the MeV Energy Range
V. Bianchin, L. Foschini, G. Di Cocco +5
We present the preliminary results of a systematic search for GRB and other transients in the publicly available data for the IBIS/PICsIT (0.2-10 MeV) detector on board INTEGRAL. L…
