New blazar candidates from the 9Y-MST catalogue detected at energies higher than 10 GeV

R. Campana, E. Massaro

We present a list of 24 new blazar candidates selected in a search for possible counterparts of spatial clusters of gamma-ray photons in the recent 9Y-MST catalogue, at energies hi…

A new insight into the innermost jet regions: probing extreme jet variability with LOFT

I. Donnarumma, A. Tramacere, S. Turriziani +4

Blazars are highly variable sources over timescales that can be as low as minutes. This is the case of the High Energy Peaked BL Lac (HBL) objects showing strong variability in X-r…

Minimal spanning tree algorithm for gamma-ray source detection in sparse photon images: cluster parameters and selection strategies

R. Campana, E. Bernieri, E. Massaro +2

The minimal spanning tree (MST) algorithm is a graph-theoretical cluster-finding method. We previously applied it to gamma-ray bidimensional images, showing that it is quite sensit…
