Potential PeVatron supernova remnant G106.3+2.7 seen in the highest-energy gamma rays

M. Amenomori, Y. W. Bao, X. J. Bi +92

Cosmic rays (protons and other atomic nuclei) are believed to gain energies of petaelectronvolts (PeV) and beyond at astrophysical particle accelerators called 'PeVatrons' inside o…

Gamma-ray Observation of the Cygnus Region in the 100 TeV Energy Region

M. Amenomori, Y. W. Bao, X. J. Bi +110

We report observations of gamma-ray emissions with energies in the 100 TeV energy region from the Cygnus region in our Galaxy. Two sources are significantly detected in the directi…

First Detection of sub-PeV Diffuse Gamma Rays from the Galactic Disk: Evidence for Ubiquitous Galactic Cosmic Rays beyond PeV Energies

M. Amenomori, Y. W. Bao, X. J. Bi +92

We report, for the first time, the long-awaited detection of diffuse gamma rays with energies between 100 TeV and 1 PeV in the Galactic disk. Particularly, all gamma rays above 398…

Intermediate-Mass Black Holes in Globular Clusters

Yu-Qing Lou, Yi-Hong Wu

There have been reports of possible detections of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) in globular clusters (GCs). Empirically, there exists a tight correlation between the centra…

Adiabatic Perturbations in Homologous Conventional Polytropic Core Collapses of a Spherical Star

Yi Cao, Yu-Qing Lou

We perform a non-radial adiabatic perturbation analysis on homologous conventional polytropic stellar core collapses. The core collapse features a polytropic exponent relat…

Perturbation Analysis of a General Polytropic Homologously Collapsing Stellar Core

Yi Cao, Yu-Qing Lou

For dynamic background models of Goldreich & Weber and Lou & Cao, we examine 3-dimensional perturbation properties of oscillations and instabilities in a general polytropic homolog…
