用VERITAS观测银河系Gamma-ray源

Observation of Galactic Gamma-ray Sources with VERITAS

G. Maier

摘要:

我们报告VERITAS观测能量超过200 GeV的已知或潜在的银河伽马射线源。观测到的物体包括双星、脉冲星风星云、大质量X射线双星和伽马射线源,在其他波长上有未知的对应物。其中的亮点是观测到X射线双星LS I +61 303的可变伽马射线发射,以及探测到MGRO J1906+06/HESS J1906+063,这是一种扩展的伽马射线源,在较低能量下无法与任何明显的对应物相关联。

英文摘要:

We report on VERITAS observations at energies above 200 GeV of known or potential galactic gamma-ray sources. The observed objects comprise pulsars, pulsar wind nebulae, high-mass X-ray binaries and gamma-ray sources with unknown counterparts in other wavelengths. Among the highlights are the observation of variable gamma-ray emission from the X-ray binary LS I +61 303 and the detection of MGRO J1906+06/HESS J1906+063, an extended gamma-ray source which could not be associated with any obvious counterpart at lower energies.
