Potential PeVatron supernova remnant G106.3+2.7 seen in the highest-energy gamma rays

M. Amenomori, Y. W. Bao, X. J. Bi +92

Cosmic rays (protons and other atomic nuclei) are believed to gain energies of petaelectronvolts (PeV) and beyond at astrophysical particle accelerators called 'PeVatrons' inside o…

Gamma-ray Observation of the Cygnus Region in the 100 TeV Energy Region

M. Amenomori, Y. W. Bao, X. J. Bi +110

We report observations of gamma-ray emissions with energies in the 100 TeV energy region from the Cygnus region in our Galaxy. Two sources are significantly detected in the directi…

First Detection of sub-PeV Diffuse Gamma Rays from the Galactic Disk: Evidence for Ubiquitous Galactic Cosmic Rays beyond PeV Energies

M. Amenomori, Y. W. Bao, X. J. Bi +92

We report, for the first time, the long-awaited detection of diffuse gamma rays with energies between 100 TeV and 1 PeV in the Galactic disk. Particularly, all gamma rays above 398…

Calibration of the Air Shower Energy Scale of the Water and Air Cherenkov Techniques in the LHAASO experiment

F. Aharonian, Q. An, Axikegu +246

The Wide Field-of-View Cherenkov Telescope Array (WFCTA) and the Water Cherenkov Detector Arrays (WCDA) of LHAASO are designed to work in combination for measuring the energy spect…

On the hard -ray spectrum of the potential PeVatron supernova remnant G106.3+2.7

Yiwei Bao, Yang Chen

The Tibet AS experiment has measured -ray flux of supernova remnant G106.3+2.7 up to 100 TeV, suggesting it {being} potentially a "PeVatron". Challenge arises when the hadron…

Construction and On-site Performance of the LHAASO WFCTA Camera

F. Aharonian, Q. An, Axikegu +246

The focal plane camera is the core component of the Wide Field-of-view Cherenkov/fluorescence Telescope Array (WFCTA) of the Large High-Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO). Be…
