XRISM Reveals a Remnant Torus in the Low-Luminosity AGN M81*

Jon M. Miller, Ehud Behar, Hisamitsu Awaki +10

Up to 40% of galaxies in the local universe host a low-luminosity active galactic nucleus (LLAGN), making it vital to understand this mode of black hole accretion. However, the pre…

Gamma rays from a reverse shock with turbulent magnetic fields in GRB 180720B

Makoto Arimoto, Katsuaki Asano, Koji S. Kawabata +14

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most electromagnetically luminous cosmic explosions. They are powered by collimated streams of plasma (jets) ejected by a newborn stellar-mass black…

Spectral analysis of Fermi-LAT gamma-ray bursts with known redshift and their potential use as cosmological standard candles

F. Fana Dirirsa, S. Razzaque, F. Piron +6

Long duration Gamma-Ray Bursts (LGRBs) may serve as standard candles to constrain cosmological parameters by probing the Hubble diagram well beyond the range of redshift currently…

Hitomi constraints on the 3.5 keV line in the Perseus galaxy cluster

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix A. Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +215

High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy with Hitomi was expected to resolve the origin of the faint unidentified E=3.5 keV emission line reported in several low-resolution studies of va…

Multiwavelength Evidence for Quasi-periodic Modulation in the Gamma-ray Blazar PG 1553+113

The Fermi LAT collaboration, M. Ackermann, M. Ajello +139

We report for the first time a gamma-ray and multi-wavelength nearly-periodic oscillation in an active galactic nucleus. Using the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) we have discover…

The Third Catalog of Active Galactic Nuclei Detected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope

M. Ackermann, M. Ajello, W. Atwood +139

The third catalog of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) detected by the Fermi-LAT (3LAC) is presented. It is based on the third Fermi-LAT catalog (3FGL) of sources detected between 100…

ASTRO-H White Paper - Chemical Evolution in High-z Universe

M. S. Tashiro, D. Yonetoku, M. Ohno +7

In this paper, we demonstrate ASTRO-H's capability to measure the chemical evolution in the high-z (z <~ 3) universe by observing X-ray afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and di…

Optical Follow-Up Observations of PTF10qts, a Luminous Broad-Lined Type Ic Supernova Found by the Palomar Transient Factory

E. S. Walker, P. A. Mazzali, E. Pian +22

We present optical photometry and spectroscopy of the broad-lined Type Ic supernova (SNIc-BL) PTF10qts, which was discovered as part of the Palomar Transient Factory. The supernova…

A Missing-Link in the Supernova-GRB Connection: The Case of SN 2012ap

Sayan Chakraborti, Alicia Soderberg, Laura Chomiuk +50

Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are characterized by ultra-relativistic outflows, while supernovae are generally characterized by non-relativistic ejecta. GRB afterglows decelerate rapidly…

Fermi-LAT Observations of the Gamma-ray Burst GRB 130427A

LAT collaboration, GBM collaboration

The observations of the exceptionally bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) 130427A by the Large Area Telescope aboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope provide constraints on the nature…

Impulsive and Long Duration High-Energy Gamma-ray Emission From the Very Bright 2012 March 7 Solar Flares

LAT collaboration

The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) observed two bright X-class solar flares on 2012 March 7, and detected gamma-rays up to 4 GeV. We detected gamma-rays both during the impulsive…

Inverse Compton X-ray Emission from Supernovae with Compact Progenitors: Application to SN2011fe

R. Margutti, A. M. Soderberg, L. Chomiuk +35

We present a generalized analytic formalism for the inverse Compton X-ray emission from hydrogen-poor supernovae and apply this framework to SN2011fe using Swift-XRT, UVOT and Chan…

The Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope discovers the Pulsar in the Young Galactic Supernova-Remnant CTA 1

Fermi LAT Collaboration

Energetic young pulsars and expanding blast waves (supernova remnants, SNRs) are the most visible remains after massive stars, ending their lives, explode in core-collapse supernov…
