Multiwavelength Study Of Two Unidentified Gamma-ray Sources
Nicola La Palombara, Patrizia Caraveo, Roberto Mignani +3
Most counterparts of the identified low-latitude gamma-ray sources are Isolated Neutron Stars (INSs). They are characterized by an extremely high value of the X/optical flux ratio,…
X-ray and optical coverage of 3EG J0616-3310 and 3EG J1249-8330
N. La Palombara, G. F. Bignami, P. Caraveo +4
The limited angular resolution of gamma-ray telescopes prevents the straight identification of the majority of the sources detected so far. This is particularly true for the low la…
Geminga: a tale of two tails, and much more
P. A. Caraveo, G. F. Bignami, A. De Luca +5
We report on the deep (100 ksec) XMM-Newton/EPIC observation of the field of the Geminga pulsar. The unprecedented throughput of the instrument allowed to detect two elongated para…
1E1207.4-5209 - a Unique Object
G. F. Bignami, A. De Luca, P. A. Caraveo +3
The discovery of deep spectral features in the X-ray spectrum of 1E1207.4-5209 focussed the attention of the astronomical community on this radio-quiet NS, making it the most inten…
