DISCOVERY OF A GeV BLAZAR SHINING THROUGH THE GALACTIC PLANE
The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) discovered a new gamma-ray source near the Galactic plane, Fermi J0109+6134, when it flared brightly in 2010 February. The low Galactic latitude (b = −12) indicated that the source could be located within the Galaxy, which motivated rapid multi-wavelength follow-up including radio, optical, and …
