Exploring the nature of Galactic unassociated sources detected by the Fermi-LAT
F. Acero, A. Acharyya, A. Adelfio +120
We investigate the nature of the unassociated sources detected by the Fermi-LAT close (|b|<10°) to the Galactic plane, representing 16% of all sources in the 4FGL-DR4 catalog. The…
Gamma-Ray Constraints on Heavy Axion-Like-Particle Decays from Fermi-LAT and H.E.S.S. Blazar Spectra
A. Acharyya, F. Aharonian, M. Backes +117
The propagation of very-high-energy (VHE; GeV) gamma rays from extragalactic sources is affected by interactions with photons of the extragalactic background light…
Gamma-ray signature of superluminous supernovae: Fermi-LAT GeV detection of SN 2017egm and evidence of a central engine
F. Acero, A. Acharyya, A. Adelfio +116
Superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) are a rare class of transients with peak luminosities 10-100 times greater than those of standard core-collapse supernovae (SNe). The mechanisms po…
Scrutinizing the 2020 multiwavelength outburst of PKS 0903-57 through observations with H.E.S.S
A. Acharyya, F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali +138
The blazar PKS 0903-57 has recently been classified as a flat spectrum radio quasar at a redshift of . In March and April 2020, Fermi-LAT and AGILE reported tremendous ac…
H.E.S.S. detection of the PSR J0855-4644 nebula
F. Aharonian, H. Ashkar, M. Backes +131
HESS J0852-463 is a TeV γ-ray source located in the Galactic plane. The region consists of a supernova remnant (SNR, RX J0852.0-4622) with a shell-like morphology, commonly referr…
Search for gamma-ray variability around Fermi-LAT pulsar glitches
Giovanni Cozzolongo, Alessio Fiori, Massimiliano Razzano +1
Pulsars are the most numerous class of Galactic gamma-ray sources detected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). Young pulsars occasionally experience sudden timing discontinuit…
