Searching for Gamma-Ray Binaries in Multiwavelength Catalogs

Searching for Gamma-Ray Binaries in Multiwavelength Catalogs

The number of gamma-ray binaries currently known is still so small that even a new finding represents a significant expansion of its population. We present a possible hunting strategy based on screening different catalogs to filter potential peculiar stars consistent with gamma-ray sources whose ass...
