Application of the MST clustering to the high energy γ-ray sky. III—New detections of γ-ray emission from blazars
Abstract
We present the results of a photon cluster search in the γ-ray sky observed by the Fermi Large Area Telescope, using the new Pass 8 dataset, at energies higher than 10 GeV. By means of the Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) algorithm, we found 25 clusters associated with catalogued blazars not previously known as γ-ray emitters. The properties of these sources are discussed.
