Fermi LAT weekly report N. 92



Covered period: 2010.Mar.08 - 2010.Mar.14

LAT Mission week: 92.57 - 93.57





  • 3C 454.3 still bright throughout the week, with an initial daily flux greater than 4 X 10-6 and fading to 2.5 X 10-6.

  • 3C 273 also bright, detected on 5 days this week with a daily flux greater than 2.4 X 10-6.

  • The FSRQs PKS 0402-362 and PKS 0426-380 both bright, detected most days of the week, with a daily flux just above and below (respectively) the 1 X 10-6 threshold.

  • PKS 0527-441 detected all this week long with an average daily flux of 0.5 X 10-6.

  • 0716+714 detected in the first three days of the week with a daily flux of 0.3 X 10-6 in the first day and 0.8 X 10-6 in the following ones.

  • Sporadic activity from PKS 0250-225 (0.5), MKN 421 (0.3), PKS 0727-11 (0.6 and 1.1), B2 1520+31 (0.4), PG 1553+113 (0.2), and PKS 2326-502 (0.4). In parenthesis the daily flux in unit of 10-6.

  • The unidentified source J2102+4542 was detected in the last 2 days of the week with a flux of 1 X 10-6, and 1.4 X 10-6, respectively. See ATel#2487.



Fluxes are in the unit of photons/cm2/s above 100 MeV. All errors are statistical only.



Note. All the fluxes reported above are from the ASP analysis and should be considered preliminary and should not be used for publication, however they are indicative of the flux range and the current status of a source. Source association is done on the basis of source location, considering spatial coincidence only, and it is not indicative of an identification.
