abstract = {The Fermi All-sky Variability Analysis (FAVA) provides a
photometric alternative for identifying week-long gamma-ray
flares across the entire sky while being independent of any
diffuse Galactic or isotropic emission model. We reviewed
779 weeks of Fermi Large Area Telescope data analyzed by
FAVA to estimate the rate and origin of Galactic gamma-ray
flares, and to search for new variable Galactic gamma-ray
transients. We report an estimated yearly rate of ∼8.5
Galactic gamma-ray flares yr$^{–1}$, with ∼1 flare
yr$^{–1}$ coming from unknown sources. Out of the known
gamma-ray sources that are spatially coincident with these
detected flares, we report gamma-ray flares for six of them
for the first time. All six are classified as pulsars, or a
source of unknown nature but which positionally overlaps
with known supernova remnants or pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe).
This potentially means these sites are tentative candidates
to be the second known site of a variable gamma-ray PWN,
after the famous Crab Nebula’s PWN. Additionally, we
identify nine unassociated flares that are unlikely to have
originated from known gamma-ray sources.},
