摘要
我们发布了AGILE卫星在2007年7月9日至2008年6月30日的观测期间探测到的高置信度伽马射线源首份星表。星表中的源是通过合并整个时间段内的所有可用数据而探测到的。AGILE于2007年4月发射，是一项致力于在30 MeV - 50 GeV能段进行伽马射线观测的ASI任务，同时具备在18-60 keV能段进行同时X射线成像的能力。本星表基于能量大于100 MeV的伽马射线成像探测器(GRID)数据。对于首份AGILE星表，我们采用了保守的分析方法，使用高质量事件过滤器来优选仪器视场中心区域（半径40度）内的伽马射线事件。这是一份显著性受限（4 sigma）的星表，由于第一年AGILE天空覆盖范围不均匀，它不是一个完整的流量受限样本。该星表包含47个源，其中21个与已确认或候选脉冲星相关联，13个与耀变体（7个FSRQ，4个BL Lac，2个未知类型）相关联，2个与HMXRB相关联，2个与SNR相关联，1个与碰撞风双星系统相关联，8个为未证认源。

Revised version, 15 pages, 3 figures, 3 tables. To be published in Astronomy and Astrophysics. Text improved and clarified. Refined analysis of complex regions of the Galactic plane yields a new list of high-confidence sources including 47 sources (compared with the 40 sources appearing in the first version)
