Identifying the Gamma-Ray Emission of the Nearby Galaxy M83
We report on the detection of a γ -ray source at the position of the nearby star-forming galaxy (SFG) M83, which is found from our analysis of 14 yr of the data obtained with the Large Area Telescope on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (Fermi ...

Fast γ-ray Variability: A Common Feature and Powerful Probe for Jetted AGNs
Among the highly dynamical non-thermal universe, flashes of γ-ray photons from jets in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are always attractive. Not only are they extraordinary observational phenomena, but they also become powerful probes of the jets ...

Probing photon-ALP oscillations from the flat spectrum radio quasar 4C+21.35
Flat spectrum radio quasar (FSRQ) is the most luminous blazar at the GeV energies. In this paper, we probe the photon-axion-like particle (ALP) oscillation effect on the latest very-high-energy (VHE) γ-ray observations of the FSRQ 4C+21.35 (PKS 1222+216).

A Combined Radio Multi-Survey Catalog of Fermi Unassociated Sources
Approximately one-third of existing γ -ray sources identified by the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope are considered to be unassociated, with no known counterpart at other frequencies/wavelengths.

Light speed variation from gamma ray bursts: criteria for low energy photons
We examine a method to detect the light speed variation from gamma ray burst data observed by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (FGST). We suggest new criteria to determine the characteristic time for low energy photons by the energy curve and the ...
