AGILE detection of extreme gamma-ray activity from the blazar PKS 1510-089 during March 2009. Multifrequency analysis

F. D'Ammando, C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata +112

We report on the extreme gamma-ray activity from the FSRQ PKS 1510-089 observed by AGILE in March 2009. In the same period a radio-to-optical monitoring of the source was provided…

Discovery of High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emission from the Binary System PSR B1259-63/LS 2883 Around Periastron with Fermi

A. A. Abdo, Fermi LAT Collaboration, M. Chernyakova +3

We report on the discovery of \geq 100 MeV γ rays from the binary system PSR B1259-63/LS 2883 using the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board Fermi. The system comprises a radio puls…

Discovery of Powerful Gamma-Ray Flares from the Crab Nebula

M. Tavani, A. Bulgarelli, V. Vittorini +65

The well known Crab Nebula is at the center of the SN1054 supernova remnant. It consists of a rotationally-powered pulsar interacting with a surrounding nebula through a relativist…

Flux variability in the FSRQ 1510-089. A radio-gamma perspective

M. Orienti, G. Giovannini, D. Dallacasa +5

The knowledge of the physical conditions occurring in the relativistic jet of radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is important to understand the mechanisms at the basis of the…

Gamma-ray flares from the Crab Nebula

LAT Collaboration

A young and energetic pulsar powers the well-known Crab Nebula. Here we describe two separate gamma-ray (photon energy >100 MeV) flares from this source detected by the Large Area…

Not only once: the amazing gamma-ray activity of the blazar PKS 1510-089

F. D'Ammando, C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata +6

PKS 1510-089 is a powerful Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar at z=0.361 with radiative output dominated by the gamma-ray emission. In the last two years PKS 1510-089 showed high variabili…
