Study of the gamma-ray source 1AGL J2022+4032 in the Cygnus Region

A. W. Chen, G. Piano, M. Tavani +58

Identification of gamma-ray-emitting Galactic sources is a long-standing problem in astrophysics. One such source, 1AGL J2022+4032, coincident with the interior of the radio shell…

Puzzling thermonuclear burst behaviour from the transient low-mass X-ray binary IGR J17473-2721

J. Chenevez, D. Altamirano, D. K. Galloway +8

We investigate the thermonuclear bursting behaviour of IGR J17473-2721, an X-ray transient that in 2008 underwent a six month long outburst, starting (unusually) with an X-ray burs…

AGILE detection of GeV gamma-ray emission from the SNR W28

A. Giuliani, M. Tavani, A. Bulgarelli +59

Supernova remnants (SNRs) are believed to be the main sources of Galactic cosmic rays. Molecular clouds associated with SNRs can produce gamma-ray emission through the interaction…

Detection of Gamma-Ray Emission from the Vela Pulsar Wind Nebula with AGILE

A. Pellizzoni, A. Trois, M. Tavani +68

Pulsars are known to power winds of relativistic particles that can produce bright nebulae by interacting with the surrounding medium. These pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are observed…
