Search for Dark Matter Satellites Using Fermi-LAT

Markus Ackermann, +166 more
TL;DR: In this article, the results of a large area telescope (LAT) search for dark matter satellites via the gamma-ray emission expected from the annihilation of weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter were reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

The surprising Crab pulsar and its nebula: A review

TL;DR: The Crab nebula and its pulsar (referred to together as 'the Crab') have historically played a central role in astrophysics and several unique discoveries have been made recently.

Observations of the Large Magellanic Cloud with Fermi

A. A. Abdo, +217 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the distribution and sources of cosmic rays in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) from analysis of gamma-ray observations were investigated and it was shown that cosmic rays are accelerated in massive star forming regions as a result of the large amounts of kinetic energy that are input by the stellar winds and supernova explosions of massive stars into the interstellar medium.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Hubble Constant from the Gravitational Lens B1608+656

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a refined gravitational lens model of the four-image lens system B1608+656 based on new and improved observational constraints: (1) the three independent time delays and flux ratios from Very Large Array observations, (2) the radio-image positions from very large baseline array observations, and (3) the shape of the deconvolved Einstein ring from optical and infrared Hubble Space Telescope images, (4) the extinction-corrected lens-galaxy centroids and structural parameters, and a stellar velocity dispersion, σap
