Constraints on the Galactic Halo Dark Matter from Fermi-LAT Diffuse Measurements

Markus Ackermann, +175 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed an analysis of the diffuse gamma-ray emission with the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) in the Milky Way halo region, searching for a signal from dark matter annihilation or decay.
Journal ArticleDOI

A cocoon of freshly accelerated cosmic rays detected by Fermi in the Cygnus superbubble

Markus Ackermann, +163 more
- 25 Nov 2011 - 
TL;DR: The Fermi Large Area Telescope has observed the star-forming region of Cygnus X and reveals a 50-parsec-wide cocoon of freshly accelerated cosmic rays that flood the cavities carved by the stellar winds and ionization fronts from young stellar clusters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulated High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emission from the Microquasar Cygnus X-3

A. A. Abdo, +173 more
- 11 Dec 2009 - 
TL;DR: The Fermi Large Area Telescope has detected a variable high-energy source coinciding with the position of the x-ray binary and microquasar Cygnus X-3, opening new areas in which to study the formation of relativistic jets.
Journal ArticleDOI

The distortion of distant galaxy images by large-scale structure

TL;DR: In this paper, a prescription for quantifying the galaxy distortion and a propagation equation for its evolution in an inhomogeneous universe is derived, and a measurement of galaxy distortion over patches of the sky up to a few square degrees in size is given.
