An accreting pulsar with extreme properties drives an ultraluminous x-ray source in NGC 5907
G. L. Israel, A. Belfiore, L. Stella +20
Ultraluminous x-ray sources (ULXs) in nearby galaxies shine brighter than any X-ray source in our Galaxy. ULXs are usually modeled as stellar-mass black holes (BHs) accreting at ve…
Searching for the optical counterparts of two young gamma-ray pulsars
R. P. Mignani, V. Testa, M. Marelli +7
We report on the first deep optical observations of two -ray pulsars, both among the very first discovered by the {\em Fermi} Gamma-ray Space Telescope. The two pulsars are the…
Observations of three young gamma-ray pulsars with the Gran Telescopio Canarias
R. P. Mignani, N. Rea, V. Testa +6
We report the analysis of the first deep optical observations of three isolated -ray pulsars detected by the {\em Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope}: the radio-loud PSR\, J0248+60…
A candidate optical counterpart to the middle-aged gamma-ray pulsar PSR J1741-2054
R. P. Mignani, V. Testa, M. Marelli +7
We carried out deep optical observations of the middle-aged -ray pulsar PSR J1741-2054 with the Very Large Telescope (VLT). We identified two objects, of magnitudes $m_v=23.10\p…
Classification and Ranking of Fermi LAT Gamma-ray Sources from the 3FGL Catalog using Machine Learning Techniques
P. M. Saz Parkinson, H. Xu, P. L. H. Yu +3
We apply a number of statistical and machine learning techniques to classify and rank gamma-ray sources from the Third Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) Source Catalog (3FGL), accor…
