M. Pilia, A. Pellizzoni, A. Trois +60
We present the results of new Agile observations of PSR B1509-58 performed over a period of 2.5 years following the detection obtained with a subset of the present data. The modula…
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…
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…
