Fermi LAT weekly report N.114



Covered period: 2010 Aug. 09 - 15 

LAT Mission week: 114.57 - 115.57





  • Ton 599 (4C 29.45, S3 1156+29, OM 295, 3EG J1200+2847, z=0.72449) showed on August 15, for the first time since the launch of Fermi, a flare above the threshold with daily flux (1.2 +/- 0.3)E-6, a factor ofabout ten above the 1-year average flux. The flare community was alerted n ATel#2795.

  • PKS 2326-502 was still bright at the beginning of the week (flux about 0.8E-6). 

  • NGC 1275 and S5 0716+71 were rather active being detected in some days of the week.

  • 3C 454.3, PKS 0537-441 and 4C 21.35 were bright during the week.

  • PMN J0850-1213 and PKS 1510-08 were seen only in one day.



Fluxes are in the unit of photons/cm^2/s above 100 MeV.



Note. All the fluxes reported above are by 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.
