The flaring blazars of the first 1.5 years of the AGILE mission
L. Pacciani, A. Bulgarelli, A. W. Chen +60
We report the AGILE gamma-ray observations and the results of the multiwavelength campaigns on seven flaring blazars detected by the mission: During two multiwavelength campaigns,…
First results about on-ground calibration of the Silicon Tracker for the AGILE satellite
AGILE Collaboration, P. W. Cattaneo, A. Argan +65
The AGILE scientific instrument has been calibrated with a tagged -ray beam at the Beam Test Facility (BTF) of the INFN Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati (LNF). The goal of the c…
AGILE detection of Cygnus X-3 γ-ray active states during the period mid-2009/mid-2010
A. Bulgarelli, M. Tavani, A. W. Chen +70
Cygnus X-3 (Cyg X-3) is a well-known microquasar producing variable emission at all wavelengths. Cyg X-3 is a prominent X-ray binary producing relativistic jets, and studying its h…
AGILE Observations of Terrestrial Gamma-Ray Flashes
M. Marisaldi, F. Fuschino, C. Labanti +10
The AGILE satellite, operating since mid 2007 and primarily devoted to high-energy astrophysics, is one of the only three currently operating space instruments capable of detecting…
Characterization of a tagged -ray beam line at the DANE Beam Test Facility
P. W. Cattaneo, A. Argan, F. Boffelli +64
At the core of the AGILE scientific instrument, designed to operate on a satellite, there is the Gamma Ray Imaging Detector (GRID) consisting of a Silicon Tracker (ST), a Cesium Io…
The AGILE observations of the hard and bright GRB 100724B
E. Del Monte, G. Barbiellini, I. Donnarumma +49
The observation of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) in the gamma-ray band has been advanced by the AGILE and Fermi satellites after the era of the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory. AGILE and F…
