LAT Monitored Sources
The following are the sources the LAT team will monitor during the first year (and most likely throughout the mission). The resulting lightcurves will be posted. This list will most likely grow as the mission progresses. EGRET fluxes are above 100 MeV.

See the LAT team's first year data release plan for the expected latencies.
The lightcurves and spectra of transients sources will also be posted; see the data policy.
