An updated list of AGILE bright gamma-ray sources and their variability in pointing mode

F. Verrecchia, C. Pittori, A. W. Chen +76

We present a variability study of a sample of bright gamma-ray (30 MeV -- 50 GeV) sources. This sample is an extension of the first AGILE catalogue of gamma-ray sources (1AGL), obt…

AGILE detection of extreme gamma-ray activity from the blazar PKS 1510-089 during March 2009. Multifrequency analysis

F. D'Ammando, C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata +112

We report on the extreme gamma-ray activity from the FSRQ PKS 1510-089 observed by AGILE in March 2009. In the same period a radio-to-optical monitoring of the source was provided…
