چکیده

Multi-wavelength analyses of spectra active galactic nuclei (AGNs) provide useful information on the physical processes in accretion disk and jets black holes. This, however, is limited to bright sources may not represent population as a whole. Another approach through investigation cosmological evolution luminosity function (LF) that shows varied (luminosity density) at different wavelengths. These differences correlations between luminosities can shed light Jet-accretion connection. Most such studies use forward fitting parametric methods involve several functions many parameters. We non-parametric, non-binning developed by Efron Petrosian, Lynden-Bell, for obtaining unbiased description LF, from data truncated observational selection effects. present analysis gamma-ray LF blazars with main focus flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs). This requires both optical data, essential redshift measurements, joint LF. new which divides sample into two sub-samples, each its own flux limit. Fermi-LAT GAIA observations, results evolution, determine intrinsic correlation corrected well known false induced their similar dependence luminosities. also direct estimation contribution extragalactic background.

Fermi Large Area Telescope Observation of a Gamma-ray Source at the Position of Eta Carinae

The Large Area Telescope (LAT) onboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope detected a γ-ray source that is spatially consistent with the location of Eta Carinae This source has been persistently bright since the beginning of the LAT survey observations (from 2008 August to 2009 July, the time interval considered here). The γ-ray signal is detected significantly throughout the LAT energy band (i...

Fermi Large Area Telescope Detection of Extended Gamma-ray Emission from the Radio Galaxy Fornax A

We report the Fermi Large Area Telescope detection of extended γ-ray emission from the lobes of the radio galaxy FornaxA using 6.1 years of Pass8 data. After CentaurusA, this is now the second example of an extended γ-ray source attributed to a radio galaxy. Both an extended flat disk morphology and a morphology following the extended radio lobes were preferred over a point-source descriptio...

A population of gamma-ray millisecond pulsars seen with the Fermi Large Area Telescope.

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 can acquire mass and angular momentum from their companions, to be spun up to millisecond periods and begin radiating again. We searched Fermi Large Area Telescope data for puls...

Estimate Of The Fermi Large Area Telescope Sensitivity To Gamma-ray Polarization

Although not designed primarily as a polarimeter, the Fermi-Large Area Telescope (LAT) has the potential to detect high degrees of linear polarization from some of the brightest gamma-ray sources. To achieve the needed accuracy in the reconstruction of the event geometry, low-energy (≤ 200 MeV) events converting in the silicon detector layers of the LAT tracker have to be used. We present preli...

Fermi Large Area Telescope Constraints on the Gamma - ray Opacity of the

The Extragalactic Background Light (EBL) includes photons with wavelengths from ultraviolet to infrared, which are effective at attenuating gamma rays with energy above ∼ 10 GeV during propagation from sources at cosmological distances. This results in a redshiftand energy-dependent attenuation of the γ-ray flux of extragalactic sources such as blazars and Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). The Large Are...
