Precise measurements of the cosmic ray proton energy spectrum in the "knee'' region
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +310
We report the high-purity identification of cosmic-ray (CR) protons and a precise measurement of their energy spectrum from 0.15 to 12 PeV using the Large High Altitude Air Shower…
LHAASO-KM2A detector simulation using Geant4
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Q. An +275
KM2A is one of the main sub-arrays of LHAASO, working on gamma ray astronomy and cosmic ray physics at energies above 10 TeV. Detector simulation is the important foundation for es…
Optimization of performance of the KM2A full array using the Crab Nebula
LHAASO collaboration
The full array of the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) has been in operation since July 2021. For its kilometer-square array (KM2A), we have optimized the select…
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…
A tera-electronvolt afterglow from a narrow jet in an extremely bright gamma-ray burst 221009A
LHAASO Collaboration
Some gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have an afterglow in the tera-electronvolt (TeV) band, but the early onset of this afterglow has not been observed. We report observations with the Lar…
The First LHAASO Catalog of Gamma-Ray Sources
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Q. An +276
We present the first catalog of very-high energy and ultra-high energy gamma-ray sources detected by the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO). The catalog was compil…
Measurement of ultra-high-energy diffuse gamma-ray emission of the Galactic plane from 10 TeV to 1 PeV with LHAASO-KM2A
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Q. An +276
The diffuse Galactic -ray emission, mainly produced via interactions between cosmic rays and the interstellar medium and/or radiation field, is a very important probe of the dis…
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…
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…
The observation of the Crab Nebula with LHAASO-KM2A for the performance study
F. Aharonian, Q. An, Axikegu +246
As a sub-array of the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO), KM2A is mainly designed to cover a large fraction of the northern sky to hunt for gamma-ray sources at en…
Prospects for a Multi-TeV Gamma-ray Sky Survey with the LHAASO Water Cherenkov Detector Array
Yingying Guo, Xiaochuan Chang, Hongbo Hu +1
The Water Cherenkov Detector Array (WCDA) is a major component of the Large High Altitude Air Shower Array Observatory (LHAASO), a new generation cosmic-ray experiment with unprece…
