Internal absorption of gamma-rays in relativistic blobs of active galactic nuclei

Julian Sitarek, Wlodek Bednarek

We investigate the production of gamma-rays in the inverse Compton (IC) scattering process by leptons accelerated inside relativistic blobs in jets of active galactic nuclei. Lepto…

High Energy Processes in Pulsar Wind Nebulae

W. Bednarek

Young pulsars produce relativistic winds which interact with matter ejected during the supernova explosion and the surrounding interstellar gas. Particles are accelerated to very h…

Inverse Compton e-p pair cascade model for the gamma-ray production in massive binary LSI +61^o 303

W. Bednarek

We apply an inverse Compton pair cascade model for -ray production in massive binary system LSI +61 303 assuming that electrons are accelerated already inside…

Detection of VHE radiation from the BL Lac PG 1553+113 with the MAGIC telescope

J. Albert et al.

In 2005 and 2006, the MAGIC telescope has observed very high energy gamma-ray emission from the distant BL Lac object PG 1553+113. The overall significance of the signal is 8.8 sig…

Flux upper limit of gamma-ray emission by GRB050713a from MAGIC Telescope observations

J. Albert, E. Aliu, H. Anderhub +127

The long-duration GRB050713a was observed by the MAGIC Telescope, 40 seconds after the burst onset, and followed up for 37 minutes, until twilight. The observation, triggered by a…

Propagation of very high energy gamma-rays inside massive binaries LS 5039 and LSI +61 303

W. Bednarek

It is expected that high energy gamma-rays, if injected relatively close to the massive stars in binary systems LS 5039 and LSI 61 3003, should be strongly absorbed, initiating inv…
