X-ray Polarization of the High-Synchrotron-Peak BL Lacertae Object 1ES 1959+650 during Intermediate and High X-ray Flux States

Luigi Pacciani, Dawoon E. Kim, Riccardo Middei +97

We report the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) polarimetric and simultaneous multiwavelength observations of the high-energy-peaked BL Lacertae (HBL) object 1ES 1959+650,…

X-ray polarization detection of Cassiopeia A with IXPE

Jacco Vink, Dmitry Prokhorov, Riccardo Ferrazzoli +92

We report on a detection of polarized 3-6 keV X-ray emission from the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). The overall polar…

Observations of M31 and M33 with the Fermi Large Area Telescope: a galactic center excess in Andromeda?

LAT Collaboration

The Fermi LAT has opened the way for comparative studies of cosmic rays (CRs) and high-energy objects in the Milky Way (MW) and in other, external, star-forming galaxies. Using 2 y…

Gamma-ray Blazars Within the First 2 Billion Years

Large Area Telescope Collaboration

The detection of high-redshift (3) blazars enables the study of the evolution of the most luminous relativistic jets over cosmic time. More importantly, high-redshift blazars t…

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…

Fermi-LAT Search for Pulsar Wind Nebulae around gamma-ray Pulsars

The Fermi LAT Collaboration, Pulsar Timing Consortium

The high sensitivity of the Fermi-LAT (Large Area Telescope) offers the first opportunity to study faint and extended GeV sources such as pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe). After one year…

Gamma-Ray Emission Concurrent with the Nova in the Symbiotic Binary V407 Cygni

LAT Collaboration

Novae are thermonuclear explosions on a white dwarf surface fueled by mass accreted from a companion star. Current physical models posit that shocked expanding gas from the nova sh…

Discovery of Pulsations from the Pulsar J0205+6449 in SNR 3C 58 with the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope

Fermi LAT collaboration, Fermi Pulsar Timing Consortium

We report the discovery of gamma-ray pulsations (> 0.1 GeV) from the young radio and X-ray pulsar PSR J0205+6449 located in the Galactic supernova remnant 3C 58. Data in the gamma-…

Simultaneous observations of PKS 2155-304 with H.E.S.S., Fermi, RXTE and ATOM: spectral energy distributions and variability in a low state

H. E. S. S., Fermi-LAT collaborations

We report on the first simultaneous observations that cover the optical, X-ray, and high energy gamma-ray bands of the BL Lac object PKS 2155-304. The gamma-ray bands were observed…
