AGILE detection of transient γ-ray emission from the region of the supergiant fast X-ray transient source IGR J17354-3255
Andrea Bulgarelli, Gabriele Panebianco, Vito Sguera +16
Context. On April 14, 2009, the AGILE satellite detected a γ-ray flare from an unknown transient source. Subsequent X-ray follow-up observations with Swift and INTEGRAL identified…
Chasing Gamma-Ray Signals from Binary Neutron Star Coalescences with the Cherenkov Telescope Array: Prospects and Observing Strategies
S. Abe, J. Abhir, A. Abhishek +457
The detection of gravitational waves (GWs) from a binary neutron star (BNS) merger by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo (GW170817), together with its electromagnetic counterpart, th…
Prospects for dark matter observations in dwarf spheroidal galaxies with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory
K. Abe, S. Abe, J. Abhir +491
The dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) orbiting the Milky Way are widely regarded as systems supported by velocity dispersion against self-gravity, and as prime targets for the sear…
Galactic transient sources with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory
Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory Consortium
A wide variety of Galactic sources show transient emission at soft and hard X-ray energies: low- and high-mass X-ray binaries containing compact objects, isolated neutron stars exh…
