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…
Fermi Large Area Telescope Observations of Misaligned AGN
LAT Collaboration
Analysis is presented on 15 months of data taken with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope for 11 non-blazar AGNs, including 7 FRI radio galaxies a…
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…
AGILE detection of GeV gamma-ray emission from the SNR W28
A. Giuliani, M. Tavani, A. Bulgarelli +59
Supernova remnants (SNRs) are believed to be the main sources of Galactic cosmic rays. Molecular clouds associated with SNRs can produce gamma-ray emission through the interaction…
Fermi Large Area Telescope Constraints on the Gamma-ray Opacity of the Universe
The Fermi LAT, the GBM Collaboration, : +1
The Extragalactic Background Light (EBL) includes photons with wavelengths from ultraviolet to infrared, which are effective at attenuating gamma rays with energy above ~10 GeV dur…
Suzaku Observations of Luminous Quasars: Revealing the Nature of High-Energy Blazar Emission in Quiescent States
LAT Collaboration, A. A. Abdo, F. Tavecchio +5
We present the results from the Suzaku X-ray observations of five flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs), namely PKS0208-512, Q0827+243, PKS1127-145, PKS1510-089 and 3C 454.3. All the…
The First Catalog of Active Galactic Nuclei Detected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope
A. A. Abdo
We present the first catalog of active galactic nuclei (AGN) detected by the LAT, corresponding to 11 months of data collected in scientific operation mode. The First LAT AGN Catal…
Multiwavelength observations of 3C 454.3. III. Eighteen months of AGILE monitoring of the "Crazy Diamond"
S. Vercellone, F. D'Ammando, V. Vittorini +110
We report on 18 months of multiwavelength observations of the blazar 3C 454.3 (Crazy Diamond) carried out in July 2007-January 2009. We show the results of the AGILE campaigns whic…
Detection of Gamma-Ray Emission from the Vela Pulsar Wind Nebula with AGILE
A. Pellizzoni, A. Trois, M. Tavani +68
Pulsars are known to power winds of relativistic particles that can produce bright nebulae by interacting with the surrounding medium. These pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are observed…
