天鹅座茧附近的VERITAS观测

VERITAS Observations of the Vicinity of the Cygnus Cocoon

A. Weinstein

摘要:

对超新星遗迹(SNR)等银河系源的$γ$射线发射的研究可能会提供关键的见解,以了解它们作为宇宙射线加速器的潜在作用,直到膝盖($\sim 10^{15}$ eV)。VERITAS天文台对100 GeV至30 TeV能量范围内的银河系和河外$γ$射线源敏感。我们在这里报告VERITAS观测附近的茧的新鲜加速的宇宙射线费米报告,这是潜在的加速器之间的天鹅座OB 2协会和$γ$ -天鹅座SNR。特别关注$γ$ -Cygni中的源VER J2019 + 407。

英文摘要:

The study of $γ$-ray emission from galactic sources such as supernova remnants (SNR) may provide key insights into their potential role as accelerators of cosmic rays up to the knee ($\sim 10^{15}$ eV). The VERITAS Observatory is sensitive to galactic and extragalactic $γ$-ray sources in the 100 GeV to 30 TeV energy range. We report here on VERITAS observations of the vicinity of the cocoon of freshly accelerated cosmic rays reported by Fermi, which lies between potential accelerators in the Cygnus OB2 association and the $γ$-Cygni SNR. A particular focus is placed on the source VER J2019 +407 in $γ$-Cygni.
