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…
Hyper Velocity Stars and the Restricted Parabolic 3-body Problem
Re'em Sari, Shiho Kobayashi, Elena M. Rossi
Motivated by detections of hypervelocity stars that may originate from the Galactic Center, we revist the problem of a binary disruption by a passage near a much more massive point…
Black hole mergers: the first light
Elena M. Rossi, G. Lodato, P. J. Armitage +2
The coalescence of supermassive black hole binaries occurs via the emission of gravitational waves, that can impart a substantial recoil to the merged black hole. We consider the e…
First AGILE Catalog of High Confidence Gamma-Ray Sources
C. Pittori, F. Verrecchia, A. W. Chen +80
We present the first catalog of high-confidence gamma-ray sources detected by the AGILE satellite during observations performed from July 9, 2007 to June 30, 2008. Catalogued sourc…
