The gamma-ray source 3HWC J1928+178, discovered by HAWC, is coincident with the 82 kyr pulsar PSR J1928+1746, located 4 kpc away. It has not been reported by any Imaging atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope (IACT), until the recent detection of emission from this region by H.E.S.S., using an analysis adapted to extended sources. No counterpart in GeV gamma-rays from Fermi-LAT data or in X-ray has been reported so far. In this contribution, I give the multiwavelength context of the region surrounding 3HWC J1928+178 and present a multi-component model derived using the Multi-Mission Maximum Likelihood framework (3ML). I explore the possibility to model the gamma-ray emission of 3HWC J1928+178 by an extended source with continuous diffuse emission. Together with the age of the pulsar and its extended nature, it may indicate a transition from a pulsar wind nebulae to a halo, where the electrons have started to cool and diffuse away from the source.
We present a study on the gamma-ray emission detected by the AGILE-GRID from the region of the SNR G78.2+2.1 (Gamma Cygni). In order to investigate the possible presence of gamma rays associated with the SNR below 1 GeV, it is necessary to analyze the gamma-ray radiation underlying the strong emission from the pulsar PSR J2021+4026, which totally dominates the field. An "off-pulse" analysis has been carried out, by considering only the emission related to the pulsar off-pulse phase of the AGILE-GRID light curve. We found that the resulting off-pulsed emission in the region of the SNR - detecte…
HB9 (G160.9+2.6) is a mixed-morphology Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) at a distance of $\sim$0.6 kpc. Previous analyses revealed recombining plasma emission in X-rays and an expanding shell structure in HI and CO emission, which were correlating with the spatial extent of HB9. In GeV energies, HB9 was found to show extended gamma-ray emission with a morphology that is consistent with the radio continuum emission showing a log-parabola-type spectrum. The overlap reported between the gas data and the excess gamma-ray emission at the southern region of the SNR's shell could indicate a possible …
The gamma Cygni supernova remnant (SNR) is a middle-aged, Sedov-phase SNR in the Cygnus region. It is a known source of non-thermal emission at radio, X-ray, and gamma-ray energies. Very-high energy (VHE, >100 GeV) gamma-ray emission from gamma Cygni was first detected by the VERITAS observatory and it has since been observed by other experiments. Observations so far indicate that there must be a population of non-thermal particles present in the remnant which produces the observed emission. However, it is not clear what kind of particles (protons/ions or electrons) are accelerated in the remn…
TeV gamma rays are observed from a few nearby radio galaxies whose jets are viewed at relatively large angles towards the observer. This emission can be produced in the kpc scale jets whose Lorentz factors are decelerated from values of the order of several at the parsec scale distances. We consider in detail the model in which TeV gamma-ray emission is produced by the relativistic electrons in the kpc scale jet which comptonize strongly beamed radiation from the inner (parsec scale) jet. As an example, we study morphology of the TeV gamma-ray emission from the decelerated kpc scale jet in the…
We discuss the influence of extragalactic magnetic fields on the intensity of gamma-ray emission produced in electromagnetic cascades from ultra-high energy cosmic rays propagating in extragalactic space. Both cosmic rays and cascade particles propagate mostly out of galaxies, galactic clusters, and large scale structures as their relative volume is small. Therefore their magnetic fields weakly affect emission produced in cascades. Yet estimates of this influence can be useful searching for dark matter particles, when components of extragalactic gamma-ray background should be known, including …
Gamma-ray binaries are systems composed of a massive star and a compact object that produce emission from radio to very high energy gamma-rays. LS I +61 303 is one of the only six gamma-ray binaries discovered so far. It is thought that gamma-ray binaries contain a young highly rotating neutron star as compact object, and the emission is produced by the interaction between its relativistic pulsar wind and the stellar wind, However, in the case of LS I +61 303 a microquasar scenario is still considered and results pointing to oppose directions have been published during the last decades. Here w…
Upper limits on gamma-ray emission from Supernovae serendipitously observed with H.E.S.S
最近的理论模型表明，年轻的超新星可能能够加速粒子，从而产生非常高能量的伽马射线辐射。我们在高能立体系统（H.E.S.S.）的视野内偶然发现的附近星系中的超新星中寻找伽马射线发射。在超新星爆发的一年内H.E.S.S. 2003年12月至2015年3月期间收集的数据被考虑并与最近的目录进行比较。九个候选超新星被确定和分析。没有发现这些物体的显著发射，伽马射线发射上限为$\sim$ 10 $^{-13}$ cm $^{-2}$ s $^{-1}$，高于1 TeV。
M87 is a giant radio galaxy located in the Virgo Cluster, known to be a very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray source. As radio galaxies are considered the misaligned low-redshift counterparts of blazars, they are excellent laboratories for testing AGN emission models. M87 has been detected and monitored by Fermi-LAT and several atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. Recently, the HAWC Collaboration presented marginal evidence of 4.5 year TeV gamma-ray emission from this object. The HAWC data has the potential to constrain the average VHE emission of sources of complex behavior, like M87, for which the p…
A few radio galaxies have been discovered to emit GeV-TeV gamma-ray emission in spite of relatively large viewing angles of their jets. We consider a scenario in which such large angle gamma-ray emission is preferentially produced by isotropically distributed relativistic electrons in the kpc scale jet. These electrons comptonize soft, non-thermal radiation from the inner jet which is beamed due to its relativistic motion. In terms of such a model, we interpret recently discovered TeV gamma-ray emission from the kpc scale jets in Cen~A. Interestingly, due to the geometry of the inverse Compton…
Violent multi-wavelength variabilities are observed in gamma-ray-selected blazars. We present an analysis of long-term light curves for eight bright blazars to explore the co-variation pattern in the gamma-ray and radio bands. We extract their gamma-ray light curves and spectra with data observed by the Fermi/LAT since 2008. We find diverse co-variation patterns between the gamma-ray and radio (at 43 GHz) fluxes in these sources. The gamma-ray and radio fluxes of 3C 454.3 and PKS 1633+382 are correlated without any time-lag, suggesting that they are from the same radiation region. Similar corr…
We report the detection of gamma-ray emission from PWN Kes 75 and PSR J1846-0258. Through modeling the spectral energy distribution incorporating the new Fermi-LAT data, we find the the observed gamma-ray emission is likely a combination of both the PWN and pulsar magnetosphere. The spectral shape of this magnetospheric emission is similar to the gamma-ray spectrum of rotation powered pulsars detected by Fermi-LAT and the results from our best-fit model suggest the pulsar's magnetospheric emission accounts for 1% of the current spin-down luminosity. Prior works attempted to characterize the pr…
The Fermi-LAT revealed that the census of the gamma-ray sky is dominated by blazars. Looking for a possible connection between radio and gamma-ray emission is a central issue for understanding the blazar physics, and various works were dedicated to this topic. However, while a strong and significant correlation was found between radio and gamma-ray emission in the 0.1-100 GeV energy range, the connection between radio and very high energy (VHE, E>0.1 TeV) emission is still elusive. The main reason is the lack of a homogeneous VHE sky coverage, due to the operational mode of the imaging atmosph…
The search for radio emission from the gamma pulsar J0357+3205 in the meter wavelength range was carried out. Periodic emission was found in one of the 1,700 observation sessions. The average pulsar profile is single-component with a half-width of 20-25 ms. Estimation of the pulsar flux density is 14 mJy.
Diffuse galactic gamma-ray emission is produced by the interaction of cosmic rays (CRs) with the interstellar environment. The study of gamma-ray emission is therefore a powerful tool to investigate the origin of CRs and the processes through which they are accelerated. We aim to gain deeper insights of the nature of gamma-ray emission in the region of Orion, which is one of the best studied sites of on-going star formation, by analysing data from the AGILE satellite. The diffuse gamma-ray emission expected from the Orion region is relatively high. Its separation from the galactic plane also e…
Application of the MST clustering to the high energy gamma-ray sky. II - Possible detection of gamma-ray emission from blazar candidates in the 1WHSP sample
The origin of the high-energy gamma-ray emission from the Milky Way center is still unclear and debated because of the impact of systematics afflicting the measurements from current experiments. Several theories and phenomenological models attempt to explain the intricate panorama. The presence of a PeVatron in the Central Molecular Zone or in its vicinity, the contribution of the hard-component of the diffuse gamma-ray emission, and dark matter annihilation scenario are among the most promising mechanisms for describing the observed excess. The development of increasingly precise models able …
