Gamma-Ray Localization of Terrestrial Gamma-Ray Flashes

M. Marisaldi, A. Argan, A. Trois +59

Terrestrial Gamma-Ray Flashes (TGFs) are very short bursts of high energy photons and electrons originating in Earth's atmosphere. We present here a localization study of TGFs carr…

Study of the gamma-ray source 1AGL J2022+4032 in the Cygnus Region

A. W. Chen, G. Piano, M. Tavani +58

Identification of gamma-ray-emitting Galactic sources is a long-standing problem in astrophysics. One such source, 1AGL J2022+4032, coincident with the interior of the radio shell…

Photoproduction of electron-positron pairs in bent single crystals

Yu. A. Chesnokov, V. A. Maisheev, D. Bolognini +3

The process of photoproduction of electron-positron pairs in bent single crystals is considered in this paper. In particular, it is shown that the probability of the process for ga…

The December 2009 gamma-ray flare of 3C 454.3: the multifrequency campaign

L. Pacciani, V. Vittorini, M. Tavani +81

During the month of December, 2009 the blazar 3C 454.3 became the brightest gamma-ray source in the sky, reaching a peak flux F ~2000E-8 ph/cm2/s for E > 100 MeV. Starting in Novem…
