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…
Probing The Central Engines Of Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei
Rodrigo Nemmen
I give a brief review of the observational properties of low-luminosity AGNs (LLAGNs). I outline some unresolved issues in the study of LLAGNs, emphasizing the uncertainties in the…
A Universal Scaling for the Energetics of Relativistic Jets From Black Hole Systems
Rodrigo S. Nemmen, Markos Georganopoulos, Sylvain Guiriec +3
Black holes generate collimated, relativistic jets which have been observed in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), microquasars, and at the center of some galaxies (active galactic nuclei; AG…
Binary Millisecond Pulsar Discovery via Gamma-Ray Pulsations
H. J. Pletsch, L. Guillemot, H. Fehrmann +150
Millisecond pulsars, old neutron stars spun-up by accreting matter from a companion star, can reach high rotation rates of hundreds of revolutions per second. Until now, all such "…
Modelling the jet power in elliptical galaxies: support for rapidly spinning black holes
Rodrigo S. Nemmen, Richard G. Bower, Arif Babul +1
Recently, Allen et al. measured a tight correlation between the Bondi accretion rates and jet powers of the nuclei of nearby X-ray luminous elliptical galaxies. We employ two model…
