AGN

FERMI/LAT

ANTARES

First results from ANTARES flare analysis using FERMI light curves are also presented. There are also ongoing studies for the last years data, including coordination with flares observed in X-rays by SWIFT and ASM.

The signal would be concentrated around the source position, but also would be correlated in time with the flare or burst, typified by the light curves from different monitored sources and gamma flares detected by telescopes.

Transient sources, like AGNs or Gamma Ray Bursters, are among the most promising candidates for neutrino telescopes, where the rejection of background is much more efficient.
