TL;DR: AGILE as mentioned in this paper is an Italian Space Agency mission dedicated to observing the gamma-ray universe, which was successfully launched on 2007 April 23 from the Indian base of Sriharikota and was inserted in an equatorial orbit with very low particle background.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a spectral and timing analysis of the prompt and afterglow emission and discussed the results in the context of the standard fireball model, and found that the spectral behavior of the X-ray light curve is consistent with a jet origin of the observed break, although the optical data can not definitively confirm this.

TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-wavelength observation of the blazar 3C 454.3 (which was dubbed "crazy diamond") carried out on November 2007 by means of the astrophysical satellites AGILE, INTEGRAL, Swift, the WEBT Consortium, and the optical-NIR telescope REM was reported.

TL;DR: Using gamma-ray data collected by the Astro-rivelatore Gamma ad Immagini LEggero (AGILE) satellite over a period of almost one year (from 2007 July to 2008 June), this paper searched for pulsed signals from 35 potentially interesting radio pulsars, ordered according to Fγ ∝ √ ˙ Ed −2 and for which contemporary or recent radio data were available.
