AbstractThe Fermi-LAT source 2FGL J2339.6-0532 is likely to host a millisecond pulsar in a ‘black-widow’ system. Strong indications of its nature come from gamma rays and particularly from optical and X-ray observations. However, no pulsations have been found so far neither in radio nor in gamma rays, despite deep searches. I will present here our efforts to find pulsations in Fermi-LAT data. I will describe the uncertainties in the orbital and spin parameters of the source, broadly covered in our search. I will prove the robustness of our technique on other similar systems, and through simulations. I will present the results of our search: the most likely candidates and the further constraints on the parameters of the putative pulsar. Finally, I will discuss the implications of our results and the prospects to find pulsations in this and other similar systems in the future.

A source of gamma rays has been found at right ascension 20h15m, declination +35°, with an uncertainty of 6° in each coordinate. Its flux is (1·5 ± 0·8) x 10-4photons cm-2sec-1at 100 MeV. Possible identifications are reviewed, but no conclusion is reached. The mechanism producing the radiation is also uncertain.

AbstractThe experiment SONG (SOlar Neutron and Gamma rays) for the low altitude satellite CORONAS-I is described. The instrument is capable to provide gamma-ray line and continuum detection in the energy range 0.1 – 100 MeV as well as detection of neutrons with energies above 30 MeV. As a by-product, the electrons in the range 11 – 108 MeV will be measured too. The pulse shape discrimination technique (PSD) is used.
