The First Pulse of the Extremely Bright GRB 130427A: A Test Lab for Synchrotron Shocks

R. Preece, J. Michael Burgess, A. von Kienlin +156

Gamma-ray burst (GRB) 130427A is one of the most energetic GRBs ever observed. The initial pulse up to 2.5 s is possibly the brightest well-isolated pulse observed to date. A fine…

Dark Matter Constraints from Observations of 25 Milky Way Satellite Galaxies with the Fermi Large Area Telescope

LAT Collaboration, M. Ackermann, A. Albert +119

The dwarf spheroidal satellite galaxies of the Milky Way are some of the most dark-matter-dominated objects known. Due to their proximity, high dark matter content, and lack of ast…

Determination of the Point-Spread Function for the Fermi Large Area Telescope from On-orbit Data and Limits on Pair Halos of Active Galactic Nuclei

LAT Collaboration

The Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope is a pair-conversion telescope designed to detect photons with energies from 20 MeV to > 300 GeV. The pre-laun…

Search for cosmic-ray induced gamma-ray emission in Galaxy Clusters

M. Ackermann, M. Ajello, A. Albert +123

Current theories predict relativistic hadronic particle populations in clusters of galaxies in addition to the already observed relativistic leptons. In these scenarios hadronic in…

Constraints on the Galactic Population of TEV Pulsar Wind Nebulae Using Fermi Large Area Telescope Observations

F. Acero, M. Ackermann, M. Ajello +155

Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) have been established as the most populous class of TeV gamma-ray emitters. Since launch, the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT)identified five high-energy…

Search for Gamma-ray Spectral Lines with the Fermi Large Area Telescope and Dark Matter Implications

LAT Collaboration

Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) are a theoretical class of particles that are excellent dark matter candidates. WIMP annihilation or decay may produce essentially mono…

The Fermi All-sky Variability Analysis: A list of flaring gamma-ray sources and the search for transients in our Galaxy

LAT Collaboration

In this paper we present the Fermi All-sky Variability Analysis (FAVA), a tool to systematically study the variability of the gamma-ray sky measured by the Large Area Telescope (LA…

Detection of the Characteristic Pion-Decay Signature in Supernova Remnants

LAT collaboration, M. Ackermann, M. Ajello +167

Cosmic rays are particles (mostly protons) accelerated to relativistic speeds. Despite wide agreement that supernova remnants (SNRs) are the sources of galactic cosmic rays, unequi…
