Enhanced detection of terrestrial gamma-ray flashes by AGILE
M. Marisaldi, A. Argan, A. Ursi +21
At the end of March 2015 the onboard software configuration of the AGILE satellite was modified in order to disable the veto signal of the anticoincidence shield for the minicalori…
A new investigation of the possible X-ray counterparts of the magnetar candidate AX J1845-0258
Fabio Pintore, Sandro Mereghetti
AX J1845-0258 is a transient X-ray pulsar, with spin period of 6.97s, discovered with the ASCA satellite in 1993. Its soft spectrum and the possible association with a supernova re…
AGILE Observations of the Gravitational Wave Event GW150914
M. Tavani, C. Pittori, F. Verrecchia +35
We report the results of an extensive search in the AGILE data for a gamma-ray counterpart of the LIGO gravitational wave event GW150914. Currently in spinning mode, AGILE has the…
INTEGRAL upper limits on gamma-ray emission associated with the gravitational wave event GW150914
V. Savchenko, C. Ferrigno, S. Mereghetti +14
Using observations of the INTErnational Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory (INTEGRAL), we put upper limits on the gamma-ray and hard X-ray prompt emission associated with the gravit…
Discovery of spin-up in the X-ray pulsar companion of the hot subdwarf HD 49798
Sandro Mereghetti, Fabio Pintore, Paolo Esposito +4
The hot subdwarf HD 49798 has an X-ray emitting compact companion with a spin-period of 13.2 s and a dynamically measured mass of 1.28+/-0.05 M_sun, consistent with either a neutro…
