AGILE detection of renewed gamma-ray activity from the FSRQ PKS 1830-211
Abstract
AGILE is detecting renewed gamma-ray activity above 100 MeV from the blazar PKS 1830-211 (also known as 5BZQ J1833-2103). Integrating from 2019-08-31 UT 12:00:00 until 2019-09-02 12:00:00, a preliminary multi-source maximum likelihood analysis yields a detection at the level of about 5.5 sigma and a flux F( > 100 MeV) = (4.9 +/- 1.4) x 10^-6 photons/cm^2/s.
