Multiwavelength Modelling of the Globular Cluster Terzan 5

I. Buesching, C. Venter, A. Kopp +2

Diffuse X-ray emission has recently been detected from the globular cluster (GC) Terzan 5, extending out to ~2.5' from the cluster centre. This emission may arise from synchrotron…

Geometric modelling of radio and gamma-ray light curves of 6 Fermi LAT pulsars

A. S. Seyffert, C. Venter, O. C. de Jager +1

The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) has recently reported the detection of pulsed gamma-rays from 6 young pulsars (J0631+1036, J0659+1414, J0742-2822, J1420-6048, J1509-5850, and…

Ground-based Gamma-Ray Observations of Pulsars and their Nebulae: Towards a New Order

O. C. de Jager, C. Venter

The excellent sensitivity and high resolution capability of wide FoV ground-based imaging atmospheric Cerenkov telescopes allow us for the first time to resolve the morphological s…

Gamma-Ray Pulsar Visibility

C. Venter, O. C. de Jager, A. Tiplady

PSR J0437-4715 is a millisecond pulsar (MSP) thought to be ``pair formation starved'' (having limited pair cascades due to magnetic photon absorption). Fortunately the general rela…

Determination of the Night Sky Background around the Crab pulsar using its optical pulsation

E. Oña-Wilhelmi, J. Cortina, O. C. de Jager +1

The poor angular resolution of imaging gamma-ray telescopes is offset by the large reflector areas of next generation telescopes such as MAGIC (17~m diameter), which makes the stud…

Are Galactic Gamma-Ray Bursters the Main Source of Hadronic Non-Solar Cosmic Rays at all Energies?

R. Plaga, O. C. de Jager, A. Dar

We propose a new hypothesis for the origin of non-solar hadronic cosmic rays (CRs) at all energies: Highly relativistic, narrowly collimated jets from the birth or collapse of neut…
