Jet Physics of Accreting Super-Massive Black Holes in the Era of the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope [PDF]
The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope with its main instrument on-board, the Large Area Telescope (LAT), opened a new era in the study of high-energy emission from Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN).

A 34.5 day quasi-periodic oscillation in γ-ray emission from the blazar PKS 2247–131 [PDF]
PKS 2247–131 is an active galaxy that has been emitting gamma-ray flares since October 2016. Here, the authors used data obtained with the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope to find that PKS 2247–131 presents a relatively short, month-like flux oscillation ...

Identification of Gamma-Ray Point Sources in Fermi-LAT Data with Minimum Spanning Tree Algorithm [PDF]
Gamma rays are the most energetic photons in the electromagnetic spectrum, detected with ground-based and space-based detectors in different energy ranges from sources in our galaxy and beyond.

GRAINE project: precise gamma-ray observations with balloon-borne emulsion telescope [PDF]
Observation of cosmic gamma rays is important in the understanding of high-energy objects or phenomena in the universe. Since 2008, the Large Area Telescope onboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (Fermi-LAT) has surveyed the sub-GeV/GeV gamma-ray ...

γ-Ray and ultra-high energy neutrino background suppression due to solar radiation
The Sun emits copious amounts of photons and neutrinos in an approximately spatially isotropic distribution. Diffuse γ-rays and ultra-high energy (UHE) neutrinos from extragalactic sources may subsequently interact and annihilate with the emitted solar ...

Explaining the GeV excess with exploding black holes
Black holes may form in present-day collapse of microscopic structures of dark matter. We show that, if microstructure black holes (MSBH) with mass m∼1013 g are produced, the spectrum of gamma rays from their evaporation agrees remarkably well with the ...

The Third Fermi Large Area Telescope Catalog of Gamma-Ray Pulsars
We present 294 pulsars found in GeV data from the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Another 33 millisecond pulsars (MSPs) discovered in deep radio searches of LAT sources will likely reveal pulsations once phase-connected

Gamma-ray Emission from Globular Clusters [PDF]
Over the last few years, the data obtained using the Large Area Telescope (LAT) aboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has provided new insights on high-energy processes in globular clusters, particularly those involving compact objects such as ...

SEARCH FOR DARK MATTER WITH GAMMA-RAYS: A REVIEW
Successfully launched in June 2008, the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, formerly named GLAST, has been observing the high-energy gamma-ray sky with unprecedented sensitivity inthe 20MeV ÷ 300 GeV energy range and electrons + positrons in the 7 GeV ...

Fermi: Monitoring the Gamma-Ray Universe
Since 2008, the Large Area Telescope and the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope have been monitoring the entire sky at energies from about 8 keV to more than 1 TeV.
