R&D of cosmic ray detection module with liquid scintillator and wavelength shift fiber

Jun Zou, Xiangdong Sheng, Zhimin Wang +12

For neutrino physics and rare event searches, background related to cosmic muons poses a notable challenge, and must be identified and rejected. It is also a challenge to control t…

A Giant Peanut-shaped Ultra-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emitter Off the Galactic Plane

Zhen Cao, Felix Aharonian, Yunxiang Bai +312

Ultra-high-energy (UHE), exceeding 100 TeV (10^12 electronvolts), γ-rays manifests extreme particle acceleration in astrophysical sources. Recent observations by γ-ray telescopes,…

Ultrahigh-Energy Gamma-ray Emission Associated with Black Hole-Jet Systems

The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, Felix Aharonian +315

Black holes (BH), one of the most intriguing objects in the universe, can manifest themselves through electromagnetic radiation initiated by the accretion flow. Some stellar-mass B…

Very high energy gamma-ray emission beyond 10 TeV from GRB 221009A

Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Q. An +276

The highest energy gamma-rays from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have important implications for their radiation mechanism. Here we report for the first time the detection of gamma-rays…

Does or did the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A operate as a PeVatron?

Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Q. An +276

For decades, supernova remnants (SNRs) have been considered the prime sources of Galactic Cosmic rays (CRs). But whether SNRs can accelerate CR protons to PeV energies and thus dom…

An Ultrahigh-energy -ray Bubble Powered by a Super PeVatron

The LHAASO Collaboration, Z. Cao, F. Aharonian +277

We report the detection of a -ray bubble spanning at least 100 in ultra high energy (UHE) up to a few PeV in the direction of the star-forming region Cygnus X, implyi…
