Energy-Dependent Shifts of Medium-Scale Anisotropies in Very-High-Energy Cosmic Rays Observed by LHAASO-KM2A
The LHAASO collabration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +310
Small deviations from isotropy in the arrival directions of Galactic cosmic rays serve as a unique probe of the local magnetic environment. In this Letter, we report observations o…
Cygnus X-3: A variable petaelectronvolt gamma-ray source
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +324
We report the discovery of variable -rays up to petaelectronvolt from Cygnus X-3, an iconic X-ray binary. The -ray signal was detected with a statistical significance of ap…
Evidence of cosmic-ray acceleration up to sub-PeV energies in the supernova remnant IC 443
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +309
Supernova remnants (SNRs) have been considered as the primary contributors to cosmic rays (CRs) in our Galaxy. However, the maximum energy of particles that can be accelerated by s…
LHAASO Detection of Ultra-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emission toward the Giant Molecular Clouds
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +310
The -ray from Giant molecular clouds (GMCs) is regarded as the most ideal tool to perform in-situ measurement of cosmic ray (CR) density and spectra in our Galaxy. We report th…
Measurement of attenuation length of the muon content in extensive air showers from 0.3 to 30 PeV with LHAASO
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +323
The attenuation length of the muon content in extensive air showers provides important information regarding the generation and development of air showers. This information can be…
