Calibration of AGILE-GRID with In-Flight Data and Monte Carlo Simulations
Andrew W. Chen, A. Argan, A. Bulgarelli +57
Context: AGILE is a gamma-ray astrophysics mission which has been in orbit since 23 April 2007 and continues to operate reliably. The gamma-ray detector, AGILE-GRID, has observed G…
The AGILE Science Alert System
M. Trifoglio, A. Bulgarelli, F. Gianotti +11
The AGILE Science Alert System has been developed to provide prompt processing of science data for detection and alerts on gamma-ray galactic and extra galactic transients, gamma-r…
AGILE Mini-Calorimeter gamma-ray burst catalog
M. Galli, M. Marisaldi, F. Fuschino +23
The Mini-Calorimeter of the AGILE satellite can observe the high-energy part of gamma-ray bursts with good timing capability. We present the data of the 85 hard gamma-ray bursts ob…
Variable gamma-ray emission from the Crab Nebula: short flares and long "waves"
E. Striani, M. Tavani, V. Vittorini +22
Gamma-ray emission from the Crab Nebula has been recently shown to be unsteady. In this paper, we study the flux and spectral variability of the Crab above 100 MeV on different tim…
GRB 080407: an ultra-long burst discovered by the IPN
V. Pal'shin, K. Hurley, J. Goldsten +25
We present observations of the extremely long GRB 080704 obtained with the instruments of the Interplanetary Network (IPN). The observations reveal two distinct emission episodes,…
Characterization of scatterers for an active focal plane Compton polarimeter
Sergio Fabiani, Riccardo Campana, Enrico Costa +4
In this work we present an active Compton scattering polarimeter as a focal plane instrument able to extend the X-ray polarimetry towards hard X-rays. Other authors have already st…
IPN localizations of Konus short gamma-ray bursts
V. D. Pal'shin, K. Hurley, D. S. Svinkin +71
Between the launch of the \textit{GGS Wind} spacecraft in 1994 November and the end of 2010, the Konus-\textit{Wind} experiment detected 296 short-duration gamma-ray bursts (includ…
