在甚高能γ射线中发现两个候选脉冲星风星云

Discovery of two candidate pulsar wind nebulae in very-high-energy gamma rays

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian

摘要:

我们提出了两个非常高的能量伽马射线源的发现,在一个正在进行的系统搜索发射超过100 GeV的脉冲星风星云的调查数据从H.E.S.S.望远镜阵列成像大气切伦科夫望远镜是寻找脉冲星风星云在甚高能量区域的扩展辐射的理想工具。上帝,它的5度大视场和高灵敏度为寻找这些物体提供了新的前景。在银河平面的-60度< l < 30度,-2度< b < 2度之间的区域内,正在进行一项系统的搜索,以寻找来自高能恒星的甚高能量辐射。对于最终的候选人,标准的H.E.S.S.应用分析并搜索多波长对应物。我们提出了两个新的候选伽玛射线脉冲星风星云,HESS J1718-385和HESS J1809-193的发现。H.E.S.S.已被证明是一个合适的仪器脉冲星风星云的搜索。

英文摘要:

We present the discovery of two very-high-energy gamma-ray sources in an ongoing systematic search for emission above 100 GeV from pulsar wind nebulae in survey data from the H.E.S.S. telescope array. Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes are ideal tools for searching for extended emission from pulsar wind nebulae in the very-high-energy regime. H.E.S.S., with its large field of view of 5 degrees and high sensitivity, gives new prospects for the search for these objects. An ongoing systematic search for very-high-energy emission from energetic pulsars over the region of the Galactic plane between -60 degrees < l < 30 degrees, -2 degrees < b < 2 degrees is performed. For the resulting candidates, the standard H.E.S.S. analysis was applied and a search for multi-wavelength counterparts was performed. We present the discovery of two new candidate gamma-ray pulsar wind nebulae, HESS J1718-385 and HESS J1809-193. H.E.S.S. has proven to be a suitable instrument for pulsar wind nebula searches.
