Fermi Large Area Telescope Second Source Catalog

P. L. Nolan, +293 more
TL;DR: The second Fermi-LAT catalog (2FGL) as mentioned in this paper includes source location regions, defined in terms of elliptical fits to the 95% confidence regions and spectral fits in terms either power-law, exponentially cutoff power law, or log-normal forms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Searching for dark matter annihilation from Milky Way dwarf spheroidal galaxies with six years of Fermi Large Area Telescope data

Markus Ackermann, +125 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on γ-ray observations of the Milky-Way satellite galaxies (dSphs) based on six years of Fermi Large Area Telescope data processed with the new Pass8 event-level analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The second fermi large area telescope catalog of gamma-ray pulsars

A. A. Abdo, +257 more
TL;DR: In this article, a catalog of gamma-ray pulsar detections using three years of data acquired by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi satellite is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of the characteristic pion-decay signature in supernova remnants

Markus Ackermann, +200 more
- 15 Feb 2013 - 
TL;DR: The characteristic pion-decay feature is detected in the gamma-ray spectra of two SNRs, IC 443 and W44, with the Fermi Large Area Telescope, providing direct evidence that cosmic-ray protons are accelerated in SNRs.
Journal ArticleDOI

The spectrum of isotropic diffuse gamma-ray emission between 100 MeV and 820 GeV

Markus Ackermann, +143 more
TL;DR: The IGRB spectrum shows a significant high-energy cutoff feature, and can be well described over nearly four decades in energy by a power law with exponential cutoff having a spectral index of $2.32\pm0.02$ and a break energy of $(279\pm52)$ GeV using our baseline diffuse Galactic emission model as mentioned in this paper.
