AGILE Observations of Fast Radio Bursts

F. Verrecchia, C. Casentini, M. Tavani +22

We report on a systematic search for hard X-ray and gamma-ray emission in coincidence with fast radio bursts (FRBs) observed by the AGILE satellite. We used 13 years of AGILE archi…

An X-Ray Burst from a Magnetar Enlightening the Mechanism of Fast Radio Bursts

M. Tavani, C. Casentini, A. Ursi +60

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are short (millisecond) radio pulses originating from enigmatic sources at extragalactic distances so far lacking a detection in other energy bands. Magnet…

AGILE Observations of Two Repeating Fast Radio Bursts with Small Intrinsic Dispersion Measures

C. Casentini, F. Verrecchia, M. Tavani +30

We focus on two repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) recently detected by the CHIME/FRB experiment in 2018--2019 (Source 1: 180916.J0158+65, and Source 2: 181030.J1054+73). These sou…

AGILE detection of gamma-ray sources coincident with cosmic neutrino events

F. Lucarelli, M. Tavani, G. Piano +34

The origin of cosmic neutrinos is still largely unknown. Using data obtained by the gamma-ray imager on board of the AGILE satellite, we systematically searched for transient gamma…

Calibration of AGILE-GRID with on-ground data and Monte Carlo simulations

P. W. Cattaneo, A. Rappoldi, A. Argan +41

AGILE is a mission of the Italian Space Agency (ASI) Scientific Program dedicated to gamma-ray astrophysics, operating in a low Earth orbit since April 23, 2007. It is designed to…

AGILE Observations of the Gravitational Wave Source GW170104

F. Verrecchia, M. Tavani, A. Ursi +36

The LIGO/Virgo Collaboration (LVC) detected on 2017 January 4, a significant gravitational-wave (GW) event (now named GW170104). We report in this Letter the main results obtained…
