We report on a detailed investigation of the gamma-ray emission from 18 broad line radio galaxies (BLRGs) based on two years of Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) data. We confirm the previously reported detections of 3C 120 and 3C 111 in the…
We report the results of a cross-match study between the hard X-ray and GeV gamma-ray catalogs, by making use of the latest 105-month Swift-BAT and 10-yr Fermi-LAT catalogs, respectively. The spatial cross-matching between the two catalogs…
The F -GAMMA program is a coordinated effort of several observing facilities to understand the AGN/blazar phenomenon via a multi-frequency monitoring approach, especially in the era of Fermi-GST. Some 60 prominent sources are monitored…
Over 2000 Gamma ray sources identified by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope are considered unassociated, meaning that they have no known counterparts in any other frequency regime. We have carried out…
The Fermi-LAT collaboration has recently released a new point source catalog, referred to as 4FGL. For the first time, we perform a template fit using information from this new catalog and find that the Galactic center excess is still…
Most of the $\gamma$-ray sources in the Fermi-LAT 14-year Source Catalogue are associated with pulsars and blazars. However, unveiling the nature of the still unassociated $\gamma$-ray sources is important for the understanding of high…
The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) reported the first definitive GeV detections of the binaries LS I +61\degree 303 and LS 5039 in the first year after its launch in June, 2008. These detections were unambiguous as a consequence of the…
In this paper we present the Fermi All-sky Variability Analysis (FAVA), a tool to systematically study the variability of the gamma-ray sky measured by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. For each…
The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) Collaboration has recently released the Third Catalog of Hard Fermi-LAT Sources (3FHL), which contains 1556 sources detected above 10 GeV with seven years of Pass 8 data. We investigate the source count…
The Large Area Telescope (LAT), one of two instruments on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope is a pair-conversion detector designed to study the gamma-ray sky in the energy range 30 MeV to 300 GeV. Fermi has detected high-energy gamma rays…
The Large Area Telescope, the primary instrument on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, is an imaging, wide field-of-view gamma-ray telescope. After many improvements to the data acquisition and event analysis procedures, it now covers the…
Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) sources feature supermassive black holes that launch relativistic plasma jets. They are key $\gamma$-ray sources providing a unique laboratory for studying extreme particle acceleration and plasma physics.…
In 2018, the Fermi mission celebrated its first decade of operation. In this time, the Large Area Telescope (LAT) has been very successful in detecting the high-energy emission (>100 MeV) from Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). The analysis of…
1ES 0414+009 (z = 0.287) is a distant high-frequency-peaked BL Lac object, and has long been considered a likely emitter of very-high energy (VHE, E>100 GeV) gamma-rays due to its high X-ray and radio flux. Observations in the VHE gamma-ray…
We report on the first Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) measurements of the so-called "extra-galactic" diffuse gamma-ray emission (EGB). This component of the diffuse gamma-ray emission is generally considered to have an isotropic or nearly…
We report on a search for steep spectrum radio sources within the 95% confidence error ellipses of the Fermi unassociated sources from the Large Array Telescope (LAT). Using existing catalogs and the newly released GMRT all-sky survey at…
The source-count distribution as a function of their flux, dN/dS, is one of the main quantities characterizing gamma-ray source populations. We employ statistical properties of the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) photon counts map to…
We present the fourth in a series of catalogs of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) observed with Fermi's Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor (Fermi-GBM). It extends the six year catalog by four more years, now covering the ten year time period from trigger…
FERMI-LAT is performing an all-sky gamma-ray survey from 20 MeV to >300 GeV with unprecedented sensitivity and angular resolution. FERMI is the only mission able to detect high energy (>20 MeV) emission from the Sun during the new solar…
The Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope was launched in June 2008 and the onboard Large Area Telescope (LAT) has been collecting data since August of that same year. The LAT is currently being used to study a wide range of science topics in…
