Fermi large area telescope observations of misaligned active galactic nuclei

Abstract: Analysis is presented on 15 months of data taken with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope for 11 non-blazar AGNs, including 7 FRI radio galaxies and 4 FRII radio sources consisting of 2 FRII radio galaxies and 2 steep spectrum radio quasars. The broad line FRI radio galaxy 3C 120 is reported here as a gamma-ray source for the first time. The analysis is based on directional associations of LAT sources with radio sources in the 3CR, 3CRR and MS4 (collectively referred to as 3C-MS) catalogs. Seven of the eleven LAT sources associated with 3C-MS radio sources have spectral indices larger than 2.3 and, except for the FRI radio galaxy NGC 1275 that shows possible spectral curvature, are well described by a power law. No evidence for time variability is found for any sources other than NGC 1275. The gamma-ray luminosities of FRI radio galaxies are significantly smaller than those of BL Lac objects detected by the LAT, whereas the gamma-ray luminosities of FRII sources are quite similar to those of FSRQs, which could reflect different beaming factors for the gamma-ray emission. A core dominance study of the 3CRR sample indicate that sources closer to the jet axis are preferentially detected with the Fermi-LAT, insofar as the gamma-ray--detected misaligned AGNs have larger core dominance at a given average radio flux. The results are discussed in view of the AGN unification scenario.

J/ψ and ψ(2s) Production pp collisions at √ s = 1.8TeV

Abstract: We present a study of $J/\ensuremath{\psi}$ and $\ensuremath{\psi}(2S)$ production in $p\overline{p}$ collisions, at $\sqrt{s}\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}1.8\mathrm{TeV}$ with the CDF detector at Fermilab. The $J/\ensuremath{\psi}$ and $\ensuremath{\psi}(2S)$ mesons are reconstructed using their ${\ensuremath{\mu}}^{+}{\ensuremath{\mu}}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ decay modes. We have measured the inclusive production cross section for both mesons as a function of their transverse momentum in the central region, $|\ensuremath{\eta}|l0.6$. We also measure the fraction of these events originating from $b$ hadrons. We thus extract individual cross sections for $J/\ensuremath{\psi}$ and $\ensuremath{\psi}(2S)$ mesons from $b$-quark decays and prompt production. We find a large excess (approximately a factor of 50) of direct $\ensuremath{\psi}(2S)$ production compared with predictions from the color singlet model.
