AGILE detection of intense gamma-ray emission from the region of the FSRQ PKS 0035-252
Abstract
AGILE is detecting enhanced gamma-ray emission from a source at Galactic coordinates (l, b) = (72.0, -86.1) +/- 0.9 deg (stat., 95% C.L.) +/- 0.1 deg (syst.), positionally consistent with the flat spectrum radio quasar PKS 0035-252 (z = 0.49806, Jones et al. 2009, MNRAS, 399, 683), also known as 5BZQ J0038-2459, associated with the gamma-ray source 3FGL J0038.0-2501.
