Peta-electron volt gamma-ray emission from the Crab Nebula
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +269
The Crab pulsar and the surrounding nebula powered by the pulsar's rotational energy through the formation and termination of a relativistic electron-positron wind is a bright sour…
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…
Discovery of a new -ray source LHAASO J0341+5258 with emission up to 200TeV
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +267
We report the discovery of a new unidentified extended -ray source in the Galactic plane named LHAASO J0341+5258 with a pre-trial significance of 8.2 standard deviations above 2…
Exploring Lorentz Invariance Violation from Ultra-high-energy Gamma Rays Observed by LHAASO
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Q. An +268
Recently the LHAASO Collaboration published the detection of 12 ultra-high-energy gamma-ray sources above 100 TeV, with the highest energy photon reaching 1.4 PeV. The first detect…
Discovery of the Ultra-high energy gamma-ray source LHAASO J2108+5157
The LHAASO collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +267
We report the discovery of a UHE gamma-ray source, LHAASO J2108+5157, by analyzing the LHAASO-KM2A data of 308.33 live days. Significant excess of gamma-ray induced showers is obse…
Extended Very-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emission Surrounding PSR J0622 + 3749 Observed by LHAASO-KM2A
The LHAASO collabration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +310
We report the discovery of an extended very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray source around the location of the middle-aged (207.8 kyr) pulsar PSR J0622+3749 with the Large High Altitude…
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…
