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…
Transient Large-Scale Anisotropy in TeV Cosmic Rays due to an Interplanetary Coronal Mass Ejection
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +309
Large- or medium-scale cosmic ray anisotropy at TeV energies has not previously been confirmed to vary with time. Transient anisotropy changes have been observed below 150 GeV, esp…
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…
Detection of two TeV gamma-ray outbursts from NGC 1275 by LHAASO
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Axikegu +275
The Water Cherenkov Detector Array (WCDA) is one of the components of Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) and can monitor any sources over two-thirds of the sky for…
Broadband -ray spectrum of supernova remnant Cassiopeia A
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +311
The core-collapse supernova remnant (SNR) Cassiopeia A (Cas A) is one of the brightest galactic radio sources with an angular radius of 2.5 $\arcmin$. Although no extension…
