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 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…
Gamma-ray Time Delay and Magnification Ratio in the Gravitationally-Lensed Blazar PKS 1830-211
S. Buson, M. De Toma, S. Larsson +7
We present the characterization of macrolensing properties of the gravitationally lensed system PKS 1830-211, utilizing data from the Fermi Large Area Telescope. While at gamma-ray…
Characterizing Candidate Blazar Counterparts of the Ultra-High-Energy Event KM3-230213A
KM3NeT Collaboration, MessMapp Group, LAT Collaboration +13
High-energy astrophysical neutrinos serve as crucial messengers for understanding hadronic acceleration processes and identifying the origins of cosmic rays, with blazars among the…
R&D on a high-performance electromagnetic calorimeter based on oriented crystalline scintillators
M. Soldani, N. Argiolas, L. Bandiera +36
Although inorganic scintillators are widely used in the design of electromagnetic calorimeters for high-energy physics and astrophysics, their crystalline nature and, hence, their…
Puzzling Variation of Gamma Rays from the Sun over the Solar Cycle Revealed with Fermi-LAT
A. Acharyya, A. Adelfio, M. Ajello +100
The steady-state gamma-ray emission from the Sun is thought to consist of two emission components due to interactions with Galactic cosmic rays: (1) a hadronic disk component, and…
