An X-Ray Burst from a Magnetar Enlightening the Mechanism of Fast Radio Bursts

M. Tavani, C. Casentini, A. Ursi +60

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are short (millisecond) radio pulses originating from enigmatic sources at extragalactic distances so far lacking a detection in other energy bands. Magnet…

Gamma-Ray and X-Ray Observations of the Periodic-Repeater FRB 180916 During Active Phases

M. Tavani, F. Verrecchia, C. Casentini +33

FRB 180916 is a most intriguing source at 150 Mpc distance capable of producing repeating fast radio bursts with a periodic 16.35 day temporal pattern. We report on the X-ray and $…

AGILE Observations of Two Repeating Fast Radio Bursts with Small Intrinsic Dispersion Measures

C. Casentini, F. Verrecchia, M. Tavani +30

We focus on two repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) recently detected by the CHIME/FRB experiment in 2018--2019 (Source 1: 180916.J0158+65, and Source 2: 181030.J1054+73). These sou…

All-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars using Advanced LIGO O2 data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1130

We present results of an all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves (CWs), which can be produced by fast-spinning neutron stars with an asymmetry around their rotation axis,…

AGILE detection of gamma-ray sources coincident with cosmic neutrino events

F. Lucarelli, M. Tavani, G. Piano +34

The origin of cosmic neutrinos is still largely unknown. Using data obtained by the gamma-ray imager on board of the AGILE satellite, we systematically searched for transient gamma…

AGILE, Fermi, Swift, and GASP-WEBT multi-wavelength observations of the high-redshift blazar 4C 71.07 in outburst

S. Vercellone, P. Romano, G. Piano +56

The flat-spectrum radio quasar 4C 71.07 is a high-redshift (), -loud blazar whose optical emission is dominated by the thermal radiation from accretion disc. 4C 7…
