Simbol-X background simulation activities
R. Chipaux, U. Briel, A. Bulgarelli +6
Using the Geant4 toolkit, a Monte-Carlo code to simulate the detector background of the Simbol-X focal plane instrument has been developed with the aim to optimize the design of th…
First simultaneous multiwavelength observations of the BL Lac object 1ES1959+650 in a steady state with MAGIC and Suzaku/Swift
M. Hayashida, C. Bigongiari, D. Kranich +7
Simultaneous multiwavelength observations were conducted for the BL Lac object 1ES1959+650 in a steady state in May 2006 with the MAGIC telescope and the X-ray satellites Suzaku an…
INTEGRAL and Swift Observations of Blazars in Outburst
Elena Pian, Luigi Foschini, Gabriele Ghisellini
The blazars 3C 454.3, PKS 0537-441 and PKS 2155-304 are traditionally known to be among the most active sources of this class. They emit at all frequencies, up to the gamma-rays, a…
Swift follow-up of the gigantic TeV outburst of PKS 2155-304 in 2006
L. Foschini, G. Ghisellini, F. Tavecchio +12
At the end of July 2006, the blazar PKS 2155-304 (z=0.116) underwent a strong outburst observed at TeV energies by HESS (up to 17 Crab flux level at E > 200 GeV). The Swift satelli…
Study of Unidentified EGRET sources with INTEGRAL: first results and future prospects
G. Di Cocco, A. J. Castro-Tirado, S. Chaty +12
The primary objective of the study of unidentified EGRET sources with INTEGRAL is to locate with a few arcminute accuracy the hard X-ray / soft gamma-ray counterparts within the EG…
Hard X-ray emission from Serpens X-1 as observed by INTEGRAL
N. Masetti, L. Foschini, E. Palazzi +5
We here report results of an INTEGRAL observation of the X-ray burst and atoll source Ser X-1 performed on May 2003. The object was observed for a total of 400 ks but nearly 8 degr…
