Examples of FAVA maps for the bright flare associated with one of the periastron passages of PSR B1259−63/LS 2883. The maps represent the analysis for the time bin [316971818, 317576618] MET, around MJD 55582. Only a ﹩20^\circ \times 20^\circ ﹩ region centered on the flare position is shown. The maps are arranged as follows: expected counts (left), observed counts (center), significance expressed in Gaussian sigma (right). Upper row: 0.1–0.8 GeV, lower row: 0.8–300 GeV. The black “x” marks the position of PSR B1259−63.
