Search for gamma-ray emission from AE Aquarii with seven years of Fermi LAT observations

Journal Article Li, Jian ; Torres, Diego F. ; Rea, Nanda ; ... - Astrophysical Journal

AE Aquarii (AE Aqr) is a cataclysmic binary hosting one of the fastest rotating (P{sub spin} = 33.08 s) white dwarfs (WDs) known. Based on seven years of Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) Pass 8 data, we report on a deep search for gamma-ray emission from AE Aqr. Using X-ray observations from ASCA, XMM-Newton, Chandra, Swift, Suzaku, and NuSTAR, spanning 20 years, we substantially extend and improve the spin ephemeris of AE Aqr. Using this ephemeris, we searched for gamma-ray pulsations at the spin period of the WD. No gamma-ray pulsations were detected above 3σ significance. Neither phase-averaged gamma-ray emission nor gamma-raymore »« less

Search for gamma-ray emission from the Coma Cluster with six years of Fermi-LAT data

Journal Article Ackermann, M. - The Astrophysical Journal (Online)

We present results from γ-ray observations of the Coma cluster incorporating 6 years of Fermi-LAT data and the newly released “Pass 8” event-level analysis. Our analysis of the region reveals low-significance residual structures within the virial radius of the cluster that are too faint for a detailed investigation with the current data. Using a likelihood approach that is free of assumptions on the spectral shape we derive upper limits on the γ-ray flux that is expected from energetic particle interactions in the cluster. We also consider a benchmark spatial and spectral template motivated by models in which the observed radiomore »« less

A Search for Transitions between States in Redbacks and Black Widows Using Seven Years of Fermi-LAT Observations

Journal Article Torres, Diego F. ; Ji, Long ; Li, Jian ; ... - The Astrophysical Journal (Online)

Considering about seven years of Fermi-Large Area Telescope (LAT) data, we present a systematic search for variability that is possibly related to transitions between states in redbacks and black widow systems. In addition, the transitions are characterized by sudden and significant changes in the gamma-ray flux that persist on a timescale that is much larger than the orbital period. This phenomenology was already detected in the case of two redback systems, PSR J1023+0038 and PSR J1227-4853, which we present here. We show the existence of only one transition for each of these systems over the past seven years. We determinemore »« less

Search For Gamma-Ray Emission From X-Ray-Selected Seyfert Galaxies With Fermi -LAT

Journal Article Ackermann, M. - The Astrophysical Journal

We report on a systematic investigation of the γ-ray properties of 120 hard Xray– selected Seyfert galaxies classified as ‘radio-quiet’ objects, utilizing the threeyear accumulation of Fermi–LAT data. Our sample of Seyfert galaxies is selected using the Swift–BAT 58-month catalog, restricting the analysis to the bright sources with average hard X-ray fluxes F14-195 keV ≥ 2.5 × 10^-11 erg cm^-2 s^-1 at high Galactic latitudes (|b| > 10°). In order to remove ‘radio-loud’ objects from the sample, we use the ‘hard X-ray radio loudness parameter’, RrX , defined as the ratio of the total 1.4 GHz radio to 14 -more »« less
