gamma-ray天文学的未来

The future of gamma-ray astronomy

Jürgen Knödlseder

摘要:

伽马射线天文学领域在过去十年中取得了令人印象深刻的进展。由于新一代成像空气切伦科夫望远镜(H.E.S.S.,MAGIC,VERITAS),由于费米-LAT卫星的发射,今天已知的数千个伽马射线源,揭示了宇宙中粒子加速过程的意想不到的普遍性。主要的科学挑战仍然摆在面前,例如暗物质的性质的识别,宇宙射线的来源的发现和理解,或在各种物体中工作的粒子加速过程的理解。本文介绍了未来几十年将应对这些挑战的一些工具和任务概念。

英文摘要:

The field of gamma-ray astronomy has experienced impressive progress over the last decade. Thanks to the advent of a new generation of imaging air Cherenkov telescopes (H.E.S.S., MAGIC, VERITAS) and thanks to the launch of the Fermi-LAT satellite, several thousand gamma-ray sources are known today, revealing an unexpected ubiquity of particle acceleration processes in the Universe. Major scientific challenges are still ahead, such as the identification of the nature of Dark Matter, the discovery and understanding of the sources of cosmic rays, or the comprehension of the particle acceleration processes that are at work in the various objects. This paper presents some of the instruments and mission concepts that will address these challenges over the next decades.
