Anisotropic Particle Transport from a Pulsar Wind Nebula Revealed by Einstein Probe and LHAASO
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +339
Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are major cosmic ray accelerators, yet the mechanisms transporting high-energy particles into the interstellar medium remain elusive. Building on the LHA…
The Extended Ultrahigh-energy Gamma-Ray Emission in the Vicinity of PSR J2238+5903
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +324
We present a comprehensive analysis of the recently discovered TeV gamma-ray source, LHAASO J2238+5900. Based on data collected from the LHAASO, our fitting results suggest that th…
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…
Challenges in Binary Pulsar Timing Detection of Dark Matter Subhalos
Zheng-Long Wang, Zi-Qing Xia, Yue-Lin Sming Tsai +1
Recently, binary pulsar timing has been proposed as a viable probe of dark matter subhalos with masses of in the solar neighborhood. We present a comprehensi…
Milky Way Dynamics Favor Dark Matter over Modified Gravity Models
Zheng-long Wang, Yue-Lin Sming Tsai, Lan Zhang +5
Modified gravity theories such as Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) and Scalar-Tensor-Vector Gravity (STVG) have been proposed as alternatives to dark matter, but decisive tests h…
