Fermi/Large Area Telescope Discovery of Gamma-Ray Emission from a Relativistic Jet in the Narrow-Line Quasar PMN J0948+0022 (2009)

Abdo, A. A., Ackermann, M., Ajello, M., Axelsson, M., Baldini, L., Ballet, J., ...

We report the discovery by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) onboard the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope of high-energy γ-ray emission from the peculiar quasar PMN J0948+0022 (z = 0.5846). The optical...

Cosmic-ray electrons, synchrotron and magnetic fields in the Galaxy (2009)

Orlando, E., Strong, A. W., Moskalenko, I. V., Porter, T. A., Johannesson, G., Digel, S. W.

The cosmic-ray propagation code GALPROP has recently been enhanced in the areas of Galactic magnetic field and synchrotron radiation. A full 3D treatment is now implemented. We describe these...

The GALPROP Cosmic-Ray Propagation Code (2009)

Strong, A. W., Moskalenko, I. V., Porter, T. A., Jóhannesson, G., Orlando, E., Digel, S. W.

The Galactic cosmic-ray propagation code GALPROP is designed to make predictions of many kinds of data self-consistently, including direct cosmic-ray measurements, gamma rays and synchrotron...

Fermi LAT Measurements of the Gamma-Ray Emission from the Large Magellanic Cloud (2009)

Porter, T. A., Knodlseder, J.

Apart from the Milky Way, the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is the only other normal star-forming galaxy that was conclusively detected in high energy (> 100 MeV) gamma rays by the Energetic Gamma Ray...

Fermi LAT Measurements of the Diffuse Gamma-Ray Emission at Intermediate Galactic Latitudes (2009)

Porter, T. A.

The diffuse Galactic gamma-ray emission is produced by cosmic rays (CRs) interacting with the interstellar gas and radiation field. Measurements by the Energetic Gamma-Ray Experiment Telescope...

Cosmic-Ray Electrons and the Diffuse Gamma-Ray Spectrum (2007)

Porter And, T. A. Porter, R. J. Protheroe

The bulk of the diffuse galactic gamma-ray emission above a few tens of GeV has been conventionally ascribed to the decay of neutral pions produced in cosmic-ray interactions with interstellar...

The Diffuse Galactic Gamma-Ray Emission Model for GLAST LAT (2007)

Porter, T. A., Digel, S. W., Grenier, I. A., Moskalenko, I. V., Strong, A. W.

Diffuse emission from the Milky Way dominates the gamma-ray sky. About 80% of the high-energy luminosity of the Milky Way comes from processes in the interstellar medium. The Galactic diffuse...

Hadronic Gamma Rays from Supernova Remnants (2007)

Moskalenko, I. V., Porter, T. A., Malkov, M. A., Diamond, P. H.

A gas cloud near a supernova remnant (SNR) provides a target for pp-collisions leading to subsequent gamma-ray emission through neutral pion decay. The assumption of a power-law ambient spectrum of...

Very High Energy Gamma Rays from Supernova Remnants and Constraints on the Galactic Interstellar Radiation Field (2007)

Porter, T. A., Moskalenko, I. V., Strong, A. W.

The large-scale Galactic interstellar radiation field (ISRF) is the result of stellar emission and dust re-processing of starlight. Where the energy density of the ISRF is high (e.g., the Galactic...

The offline software framework of the Pierre Auger Observatory. (2007)

Argiro, S., Barroso, S.L.C., Gonzalez, J., Nellen, L., Paul, T., Porter, T.A., ...

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research A, 580(2007) S. 1485-96

Understanding limitations in the determination of the diffuse Galactic gamma-ray emission (2006)

Moskalenko, I. V., Digel, S. W., Porter, T. A., Reimer, O., Strong, A. W.

We discuss uncertainties and possible sources of errors associated with the determination of the diffuse Galactic gamma-ray emission using the EGRET data. Most of the issues will be relevant also in...

Attenuation of VHE gamma rays by the Milky Way interstellar radiation field (2005)

Moskalenko, I. V., Porter, T. A., Strong, A. W.

The attenuation of very high energy gamma rays by pair production on the Galactic interstellar radiation field has long been thought of as negligible. However, a new calculation of the interstellar...

Argiro, S., Barroso, S.L.C, Dagoret-Campagne, S., Gonzalez, J., Nellen, L., Paul, T., ...

The Pierre Auger Observatory is designed to unveil the nature and the origins of the highest energy cosmic rays. The large and geographically dispersed collaboration of physicists and the...
