The second catalog of flaring gamma-ray sources from the Fermi All-sky Variability Analysis

S. Abdollahi, M. Ackermann, M. Ajello +124

We present the second catalog of flaring gamma-ray sources (2FAV) detected with the Fermi All-sky Variability Analysis (FAVA), a tool that blindly searches for transients over the…

Searching for high-energy gamma-ray counterparts to Gravitational Wave sources with Fermi-LAT: a needle in a haystack

Giacomo Vianello, Nicola Omodei, James Chiang +1

At least a fraction of Gravitational Wave (GW) progenitors are expected to emit an electromagnetic (EM) signal in the form of a short gamma-ray burst (sGRB). Discovering such a tra…

Fermi Large Area Telescope Detection of Extended Gamma-Ray Emission from the Radio Galaxy Fornax A

LAT Collaboration

We report the Fermi Large Area Telescope detection of extended gamma-ray emission from the lobes of the radio galaxy Fornax A using 6.1 years of Pass 8 data. After Centaurus A, thi…

Sensitivity Projections for Dark Matter Searches with the Fermi Large Area Telescope

Eric Charles, Miguel Sanchez-Conde, Brandon Anderson +22

The nature of dark matter is a longstanding enigma of physics; it may consist of particles beyond the Standard Model that are still elusive to experiments. Among indirect search te…
