Fermi LAT Weekly Report N. 273


Covered period: 2013.Aug.26 - 2013.Sep.01
LAT Mission week: 273.57 - 274.57

  • A bright flare from the narrow-line Seyfert galaxy 1H 0323+342 was detected for the first time on August 28 with a daily averaged flux of (1.0 +/- 0.3) which is 29 times its daily averaged flux from the 2FGL catalog (see ATel #5344). It peaked on August 30 with a daily averaged flux of (2.0 +/- 0.4) which is 56 times the 2FGL flux.
  • PKS 1510-08 was detected all week with a daily averaged flux between (1.4 +/- 0.4) and (2.2 +/- 0.5).
  • 4C +38.41 was detected all week with a daily averaged flux between (1.2 +/- 0.3) and (2.2 +/- 0.4).
  • 3C 454.3 was detected all week with a daily averaged flux between (0.6 +/- 0.2) and (1.3 +/- 0.4).
  • Sporadic daily detections of blazars (fluxes below 1X10-6): Mkn 421, NGC 1275, PKS B1424-418, PKS 2155-304, PKS 0426-380.

Fluxes are in the unit of 10-6 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.
