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…
The extraordinary gamma-ray flare of the blazar 3C 454.3
E. Striani, S. Vercellone, M. Tavani +56
We present the gamma-ray data of the extraordinary flaring activity above 100 MeV from the flat spectrum radio quasar 3C 454.3 detected by AGILE during the month of December 2009.…
Episodic Transient Gamma-Ray Emission from the Microquasar Cygnus X-1
S. Sabatini, M. Tavani, E. Striani +58
Cygnus X-1 is the archetypal black hole (BH) binary system in our Galaxy. We report the main results of an extensive search for transient gamma-ray emission from Cygnus X-1 carried…
Direct Evidence for Hadronic Cosmic-Ray Acceleration in the Supernova Renmant IC 443
M. Tavani, A. Giuliani, A. W. Chen +59
The Supernova Remnant (SNR) IC 443 is an intermediate-age remnant well known for its radio, optical, X-ray and gamma-ray energy emissions. In this Letter we study the gamma-ray emi…
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…
