The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) has revealed a mysterious extended excess of GeV gamma-ray emission around the Galactic Center, which can potentially be explained by unresolved emission from a population of pulsars, particularly…

$\gamma$-ray radiation from pulsars is usually thought to be mostly produced by the synchro-curvature losses of accelerated particles. Here we present a systematic study of all currently reported, good-quality Fermi-LAT pulsar spectral…

We report the discovery of eight gamma-ray pulsars in blind frequency searches using the LAT, onboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Five of the eight pulsars are young (tau_c<100 kyr), energetic (Edot>10^36 erg/s), and located within…

The coexistence of Planck and Fermi satellites in orbit has enabled the exploration of the connection between the (sub-)millimeter and gamma-ray emission in a large sample of blazars. We find that the gamma-ray emission and the (sub-)mm…
