    A search for primeval galaxies (1991)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-24
    Description: We are conducting a search for emission-line objects at large redshifts, ostensibly young and forming galaxies. Our method is to search for strong line emission, in particular Ly-alpha, using two techniques: a direct, narrow-band imaging search using a Fabry-Perot interferometer; and a serendipitous long-slit spectroscopic search. Assuming that none of the faint candidates found so far are actually primeval galaxies, we can set the strongest limits to date on the surface density of Ly-alpha-luminous primeval galaxies on the sky. Some of the faint emission line galaxies detected in our survey at z roughly 0.5 - 1 may be representative of the faint blue galaxy population detected in deep continuum imaging surveys.

    Two X-ray pulsars: 2S 1145-619 and 1E 1145.1-6141 (1980)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Observations from the Einstein observatory reveal a previously unreported source, 1e1145.1-6141, within 15 arcmin of 2s1145-619 and of comparable intensity during July 1979. Periodicity analysis of the data shows a 290 + or - 2s period for the 2s source and a 298 + or - 4s period for the lE source, confirming the previous Ariel V report of two periods in this range from this region of the sky.

    SAS-2 High energy gamma-ray observations of the Vela pulsar (1975)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The second Small Astronomy Satellite high-energy (35 MeV) gamma-ray telescope detected pulsed gamma-ray emission at the radio period from PSR 0833-45, the Vela pulsar, as well as an unpulsed flux from the Vela region. The pulsed emission consists of two peaks, one following the radio peak by about 13 msec, and the other 0.4 period after the first. The luminosity of the pulsed emission above 100 MeV from Vela is about 0.1 that of the pulsar NP0532 in the Crab nebula, whereas the pulsed emission from Vela at optical wavelengths is less than 0.0004 that from the Crab. The relatively high intensity of the pulsed gamma-ray emission and the double peak structure, compared to the single pulse in the radio emission, suggests that the high energy gamma-ray pulsar emission may be produced under different conditions from those found at lower energies.

    On the nature of the unidentified EGRET sources: Are they Geminga-like pulsars? (1995)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: Observations with the Energetic Gamma Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET) aboard the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO) show more than 30 unidentified gamma-ray sources concentrated along the Galactic plane. Based on their spatial distribution, the typical distances of the sources are found to be between 1.2 and 6 kpc. Luminosity estimates made using the estimated distances of the sources and their observed gamma-ray fluxes lie in the range (0.7-16.7) x 10(exp 35) ergs/s. These values, on the average, appear to be higher than the luminosities of the gamma-ray pulsars observed by EGRET. The luminosity estimates indicate that the low-latitude unidentified EGRET sources cannot be explained as a group of older, low-luminosity pulsars like Geminga, although the high-latitude sources may be candidates.

    EGRET high-energy gamma-ray pulsar studies. 1: Young spin-powered pulsars (1994)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: As part of its ongoing survey of the high-energy gamma-ray sky, the Energetic Gamma Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET) on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory has searched for emission from spin-powered pulsars, five of which have now been detected in the energy range 30 MeV less than or = E less than or = 20 GeV. A systematic study of the all-sky survey has found no additional pulsed gamma-ray sources. The pulsar detections, coupled with the upper limits on pulsed gamma radiation from other radio pulsars, indicate that the simplest models of gamma-ray pulsars are incomplete.

    Gamma radiation from blazar PKS 0537-441 (1993)

    Description: The Energetic Gamma Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET) on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO) observed high-energy gamma rays from PKS 0537-441 during observations in 1991 July-August. Upper limits from later EGRET observations suggest time variability.

    The Gamma Ray Observatory - Viewing the violent universe (1991)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: An overview is given of the Gamma Ray Observatory (GRO) experimental satellite and the four instruments that permit the study of space phenomena from 0.03 to 30,000 MeV. The GRO comprises: (1) the Burst and Transient Source Experiment; (2) the Oriented Scintillation Spectrometer Experiment; (3) the Imaging Compton Telescope; and (4) the Energetic Gamma-Ray Experiment Telescope. The GRO is expected to provide data regarding the active galaxies, extragalactic diffuse radiation, the Galactic center, matter-antimatter annihilation, and gamma-ray emission from quasars.

    EGRET - The high energy gamma ray telescope for NASA's Gamma Ray Observatory (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The EGRET high energy gamma-ray telescope under development for NASA's Gamma Ray Observatory will have an energy range of approximately 12 to 30,000 MeV, energy resolution of about 15 percent FWHM over most of that range, an effective area of about 2000 sq cm at high energies, and single photon angular accuracy of approximately 2 deg at 100 MeV, less than 0.1 deg above 5 GeV. This instrument can locate strong sources to an accuracy of about 5 arc min. The instrument utilizes a set of digital spark chambers interleaved with tantalum foils for detection and identification of gamma-ray events, and a large NaI(Tl) scintillator for energy determination. The system is triggered by a coincidence matrix using two arrays of plastic scintillation counters and a large plastic scintillator anticoincidence dome that rejects incident charged particles.

    Calibration of the EGRET high-energy gamma-ray telescope in the range 20-10,000 MeV with a tunable beam of quasi-monoenergetic gamma rays at SLAC (1987)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-12
    Description: The EGRET telescope, one of the instruments to be carried on NASA's Gamma Ray Observatory, is designed to explore the high-energy portion (20-24,000 MeV) of the electromagnetic spectrum. A calibration source of gamma-rays over this wide energy range has been used together with an appropriate set of intensity-monitoring instruments, to conduct a calibration of the EGRET telescope over this energy range for the full telescope aperture. The calibration method and an overview of the results are described.
