Tev Gamma - Ray Sources ?
In this paper, we identify Cen A and M87, two nearby Fanaroff-Riley I (FRI) radio galaxies, with high-energy-peaked BL Lac-like (HBL-like) objects by investigating their spectral energy distributions (SEDs). The SED peak of Cen A at ∼150 keV, which was generally believed to be the peak of inverseCompton emission as in the case of 3C 273, is found to be actually the peak of synchrotron emission....
متن کاملExtragalactic Gamma-ray Sources
This chapter provides a review of γ-ray sources lying at high Galactic latitudes. Their statistical properties and variability status, as well as studies involving cross correlations with lower frequency catalogs and multiwavelength observations, are summarized. The case for active galactic nuclei is analyzed with special emphasis, since they represent the largest population of high energy sour...
متن کاملMicroquasars and gamma-ray sources
Microquasars are X-ray binary systems with non-thermal radio emission originated in jet-like features. They are attractive sites for gamma-ray production, since relativistic particles in the jet should traverse locally strong both photon and matter fields. In this review we discuss whether some of the unidentified gammaray sources detected by the EGRET instrument of the Compton Gamma-Ray Observ...
متن کاملStatistics of Gamma Ray Burst Temporal Asymmetry
We study the temporal asymmetry of over 600 bursts from the BATSE 3B catalog, encompassing a 200-fold range in peak flux. By comparing the rates of rise and fall of the flux near the highest burst peak, we find that about two-thirds of the bursts exhibit a preferred asymmetry in the sense that the flux rises more rapidly than it falls, confirming the conclusions of previous studies employing sm...
متن کاملThe Statistics of Gamma-Ray Burst Lensing
Possibly the only unambiguous verification that gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are at cosmological distances would be the observation of multiple images of a gravitationally lensed burst. Each images would arrive at a different time, but exhibit identical light curves. We improve upon previous calculations of GRB lensing by using revised cosmological burst models based upon better knowledge of burst s...
