Titolo: | High-energy Gamma-Ray Activity from V404 Cygni Detected by AGILE during the 2015 June Outburst | Autori: | PIANO, Giovanni Munar-Adrover, P. VERRECCHIA, Francesco TAVANI, MARCO Trushkin, S. A. |
Data pubblicazione: | 2017 | Rivista: | THE ASTROPHYSICAL JOURNAL | Numero: | 839 | Fascicolo: | 2 | Abstract: | The AGILE satellite detected transient high-energy γ-ray emission from the X-ray binary V404 Cygni, during the 2015 June outburst observed in radio, optical, X-ray, and soft γ-ray frequencies. The activity was observed by AGILE in the 50-400 MeV energy band, between 2015 June 24 UT 06:00:00 and 2015 June 26 UT 06:00:00 (MJD 57197.25-57199.25), with a detection significance of ∼4.3σ. The γ-ray detection, consistent with a contemporaneous observation by Fermi-LAT, is correlated with a bright flare observed at radio and hard X-ray frequencies, and with a strong enhancement of the 511 keV line emission, possibly indicating plasmoid ejections in a lepton-dominated transient jet. The AGILE observations of this binary system are compatible with a microquasar scenario in which transient jets are responsible for the high-energy γ-ray emission. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/29523 | URL: | https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/1538-4357/aa6796 | ISSN: | 0004-637X | DOI: | 10.3847/1538-4357/aa6796 | Bibcode ADS: | 2017ApJ...839...84P | Fulltext: | open |
