متن کاملPulsar Near the Supernova Remnant RCW 103
Received ; accepted – 2 – ABSTRACT We report the detection of the radio pulsar counterpart to the 69 ms X-ray pulsar discovered near the supernova remnant RCW 103 (G332.4−0.4). Our detection confirms that the pulsations arise from a rotation-powered neutron star, which we name PSR J1617−5055. The observed barycentric period derivative confirms that the pulsar has a characteristic age of only 8 ...
متن کاملAn unresolved X - ray source inside the supernova remnant RCW 86
We report on the discovery of an unresolved X-ray source inside the supernova remnant G315.4-2.3 (RCW 86). The source is located 7 to the Southwest of the geometrical centre and may be close to the actual explosion centre of the supernova, which makes this a candidate for the stellar remnant associated with RCW 86. However, the presence of a possible optical counterpart with V ∼ 14 at 3 from th...
متن کاملPost-launch performance of the Fermi Large Area Telescope
The Large Area Telescope (LAT) onboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope started nominal operations on August 13, 2008, after about 60 days of instrument checkout and commissioning and is currently performing an all-sky gamma-ray survey from 30 MeV to above 300 GeV with unprecedented sensitivity and angular resolution. The LAT pre-launch response was tuned using Monte Carlo simulations and te...
متن کاملDark Matter Searches with the Fermi Large Area Telescope
The Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope, successfully launched on June 11th, 2008, is the next generation satellite experiment for high-energy gamma-ray astronomy. The main instrument, the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT), with a wide field of view (> 2 sr), a large effective area (> 8000 cm2 at 1 GeV), sub-arcminute source localization, a large energy range (20 MeV 300 GeV) and a good energy resol...
