摘要
PKS 2005-489, at z = 0.071, is one of the closest BL Lacertae objects, bright in radio to X-ray wavebands. It has been in EGRET's field of view a total of six times within an aspect angle of 30 degrees from Phase 1 to Phase 3 (1991 May to 1994 October), none afterwards. But the total EGRET exposure to this region of the sky was still rather low. PKS 2005-489 was listed in the First EGRET Catalog at the significance root TS = 4.3, in the context of the maximum likelihood analysis adopted by the EGRET team as pa,rt of the-standard EGRET software package. Later when the EGRET data were reanalyzed with revised software and improved diffuse model to generate the Second EGRET Catalog, the detection significance of PKS 2005-489 was found to be at root TS = 3.8, slightly below the root TS = 4.0 cut line to qualify for an entry in the Second EGRET Catalog. The status of EGRET results on PKS 2005-489 at this time is presented in this paper.
