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…
Extreme PeV accelerator associated with GRS 1915+105
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +322
Microquasars, binary systems featuring relativistic jets, have emerged as sources for particle acceleration beyond PeV energies. We present a study of the broadband -ray emissi…
Ultra-high-energy -ray imprints from PeV particles accelerated by supernova remnants
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +320
The quest for the origin of cosmic ray (CRs) is a fundamental issue in astrophysics. Shocks of supernova remnants (SNRs) have been considered as the dominant contributors to Galact…
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…
First detection of ultra-high energy emission from gamma-ray binary LS I +61 303
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +320
We report the first detection of gamma-ray emission up to ultra-high-energy (UHE; 100 TeV) emission from the prototypical gamma-ray binary system LS I +61 303 using data from th…
Energy calibration of LHAASO-KM2A using the cosmic ray Moon shadow
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +323
We present a precise measurement of the westward, rigidity-dependent shift of the Moon's shadow using three and a half years of cosmic-ray data collected by the Kilometer Square Ar…
