Erratum: 'The first fermi large area telescope catalog of gamma-ray pulsars''
Abdo, A.A.; Venter, C.; Ackermann, M.; Ajello, M.; Atwood, W.B. (IOP Publishers, 2011) -
The first Fermi Large Area Telescope catalog of gamma-ray pulsars
Abdo, A.A.; Venter, C.; Ackermann, M.; Ajello, M.; Atwood, W.B.; Fermi LAT (IOP Publishing, 2010)The dramatic increase in the number of known gamma-ray pulsars since the launch of the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (formerly GLAST) offers the first opportunity to study a sizable population of these high-energy objects. ... -
Observations of the Large Magellanic Cloud with Fermi
Abdo, A.A.; Venter, C.; Ackermann, M.; Ajello, M.; Atwood, W.B.; Fermi LAT (EDP Sciences, 2010)Context. The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is to date the only normal external galaxy that has been detected in high-energy gamma rays. Highenergy gamma rays trace particle acceleration processes and gamma-ray observations ... -
A population of gamma-ray millisecond pulsars seen with the Fermi Large Area Telescope
Abdo, A.A.; Venter, C.; Ackermann, M.; Ajello, M.; Atwood, W.B.; Fermi LAT (AAAS, 2009)Pulsars are born with subsecond spin periods and slow by electromagnetic braking for several tens of millions of years, when detectable radiation ceases. A second life can occur for neutron stars in binary systems. They ...
