The dust-scattering X-ray rings of the anomalous X-ray pulsar 1E 1547.0-5408
A. Tiengo, G. Vianello, P. Esposito +14
On 2009 January 22 numerous strong bursts were detected from the anomalous X-ray pulsar 1E 1547.0-5408. Swift/XRT and XMM-Newton/EPIC observations carried out in the following two…
Powerful high energy emission of the remarkable BL Lac object S5 0716+714
V. Vittorini, M. Tavani, A. Paggi +13
BL Lac objects of the intermediate subclass (IBLs) are known to emit a substantial fraction of their power in the energy range 0.1--10 GeV. Detecting gamma-ray emission from such s…
Discovery of extreme particle acceleration in the microquasar Cygnus X-3
M. Tavani, A. Bulgarelli, G. Piano +67
The study of relativistic particle acceleration is a major topic of high-energy astrophysics. It is well known that massive black holes in active galaxies can release a substantial…
Multiwavelength observations of a TeV-Flare from W Comae
VERITAS collaboration, V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu +167
We report results from an intensive multiwavelength campaign on the intermediate-frequency-peaked BL Lacertae object W Com (z=0.102) during a strong outburst of very high energy ga…
AGILE detection of a rapid gamma-ray flare from the blazar PKS 1510-089 during the GASP-WEBT monitoring
F. D'Ammando, G. Pucella, C. M. Raiteri +103
We report the detection by the AGILE satellite of a rapid gamma-ray flare from the powerful gamma-ray quasar PKS 1510-089, during a pointing centered on the Galactic Center region…
Observation of GRBs with AGILE
M. Marisaldi, G. Barbiellini, E. Costa +21
Since its early phases of operation, the AGILE satellite is observing Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) over an energy range potentially spanning six orders of magnitude. In the hard X-ray b…
Detection of Gamma-ray Emission from the Eta-Carinae Region
M. Tavani, S. Sabatini, E. Pian +63
We present the results of extensive observations by the gamma-ray AGILE satellite of the Galactic region hosting the Carina nebula and the remarkable colliding wind binary Eta Cari…
Discovery of new gamma-ray pulsars with AGILE
A. Pellizzoni, M. Pilia, A. Possenti +67
Using gamma-ray data collected by the Astrorivelatore Gamma ad Immagini LEggero (AGILE) satellite over a period of almost one year (from 2007 July to 2008 June), we searched for pu…
