First year Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope observations of Centaurus A

Presenter: C. C. Teddy Cheung (NASA GSFC)

Abstract: Results from the first year of Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) observations of the γ-ray emitting radio galaxy Centaurus A will be presented. This will include a comparison to other known γ-ray (MeV, TeV) emitting radio galaxies, focusing on the unique insight into emission models of relativistic jets provided by these systems. Additionally, results from a search for extended γ-rays from the giant radio lobes will be presented.
