Gamma-ray emission from the globular clusters Liller 1, M80, NGC 6139, NGC 6541, NGC 6624, and NGC 6752 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Globular clusters (GCs) are emerging as a new class of gamma-ray emitters, thanks to the data obtained from the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. By now, eight GCs are known to emit gamma-rays at energies >100~MeV.

Gamma-ray polarimetry [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2003
An astrophysics application of a low noise Double-sided Silicon Strip Detector (DSSD) is described. A Semiconductor Multiple-Compton Telescope (SMCT) is being developed to explore the gamma-ray universe in the 0.1-20 MeV energy band. Excellent energy resolution and polarization sensitivity are key features of the SMCT.

Probing intrinsic properties of short gamma-ray bursts with gravitational waves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Progenitors of short gamma-ray bursts are thought to be neutron stars coalescing with their companion black hole or neutron star, which are one of the main gravitational wave sources. We have devised a Bayesian framework for combining gamma-ray burst and

EXTRAGALACTIC GAMMA-RAYS: GAMMA RAY BURSTS AND BLAZARS [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics A, 2005
The extragalactic gamma-ray sky is dominated by two classes of sources: Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) and radio loud active galactic nuclei whose jets are pointing at us (blazars). We believe that the radiation we receive from them originates from the transformation of bulk relativistic energy into random energy.

Outliers in Spectral Time Lag-Selected Gamma Ray Bursts

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
It is possible that astrophysical samples are polluted by some outliers, which might belong to a different sub-class. By removing the outliers, the underlying statistical features may be revealed.

The connection between the radio jet and the gamma-ray emission in the radio galaxy 3C 120 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We present the analysis of the radio jet evolution of the radio galaxy 3C 120 during a period of prolonged gamma-ray activity detected by the Fermi satellite between December 2012 and October 2014.

Gamma-Rays from Kilonovae and the Cosmic Gamma-Ray Background [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2020
Abstract The recent detection of the gravitational-wave event GW170817, produced by the coalescence of two neutron stars, and of its optical–infrared counterpart, powered by the radioactive decay of r-process elements, has opened a new window onto gamma-ray astronomy: the direct detection of photons coming from such decays.

The GAMMA-400 gamma-ray telescope for precision gamma-ray emission investigations

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2016
The GAMMA-400 gamma-ray telescope with excellent angular and energy resolutions is designed to search for signatures of dark matter in the fluxes of gamma-ray emission and electrons + positrons. Precision investigations of gamma-ray emission from Galactic Center, Crab, Vela, Cygnus, Geminga, and other regions will be performed, as well as diffuse gamma-

Gamma ray effects on flash memory cell arrays [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2012
Information stored in flash memories is physically represented by the absence or presence of charge on electrically isolated floating gates. Interaction of gamma rays with the insulators surrounding the floating gate produces effects that degrade the ...

Gamma-ray binaries [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2007
Recent observations have shown that some compact stellar binaries radiate the highest energy light in the universe. The challenge has been to determine the nature of the compact object and whether the very high energy gamma-rays are ultimately powered by pulsar winds or relativistic jets.
