Unveiling TeV halos among unidentified extended TeV sources
Michela Rigoselli, Sarah Recchia, Alberto Bonollo +4
In recent years, the number of known sources emitting very- and ultra-high-energy gamma-rays has increased significantly thanks to facilities such as LHAASO and HAWC. Many of the o…
Supernova Remnants in Gamma Rays
Andrea Giuliani, Martina Cardillo
In the 1960s, the remnants of supernova explosions (SNRs) were indicated as a possible source of galactic cosmic rays through the Diffusive Shock Acceleration (DSA) mechanism. Sinc…
Galactic transient sources with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory
Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory Consortium
A wide variety of Galactic sources show transient emission at soft and hard X-ray energies: low- and high-mass X-ray binaries containing compact objects, isolated neutron stars exh…
Sensitivity of the Cherenkov Telescope Array to TeV photon emission from the Large Magellanic Cloud
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Consortium
A deep survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud at ~0.1-100TeV photon energies with the Cherenkov Telescope Array is planned. We assess the detection prospects based on a model for the…
The Orion Region: Evidence of enhanced cosmic-ray density in a stellar wind forward shock interaction with a high density shell
Martina Cardillo, Nicola Marchili, Giovanni Piano +3
Context. In recent years, an in-depth gamma-ray analysis of the Orion region has been carried out by the AGILE and Fermi-LAT (Large Area Telescope) teams with the aim of estimating…
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…
A prompt extra component in the high energy spectrum of GRB 131108A
A. Giuliani, S. Mereghetti, M. Marisaldi +9
The high-fluence GRB131108A at redshift z=2.4, was detected by the Mini-Calorimeter (MCAL, 0.35-100 MeV) and the Gamma- Ray Imaging Detector (GRID, 30 MeV - 30 GeV) onboard the AGI…
The June 2008 flare of Markarian 421 from optical to TeV energies
R. M. Wagner, I. Donnarumma, J. Grube +6
We present optical to very-high energy (VHE) gamma-ray observations of Mrk 421 between 2008 May 24 and June 23. A high-energy (HE) gamma-ray signal was detected by AGILE-GRID durin…
Blazars: the gamma-ray view of AGILE
F. D'Ammando, S. Vercellone, I. Donnarumma +8
Since its launch in April 2007, the AGILE satellite detected with its Gamma-Ray Imaging Detector (GRID) several blazars at high significance: 3C 279, 3C 454.3, PKS 1510-089, S5 071…
The June 2008 flare of Markarian 421 from optical to TeV energies
The Agile Collaboration, Webt Collaboration, Magic Collaboration +2
We present optical, X-ray, high energy ( GeV) and very high energy ( GeV; VHE) observations of the high-frequency peaked blazar Mrk 421 taken betwee…
