LHAASO-WCDA observed a 5 days TeV-delayed flaring event in blazar 1ES 1959+650

Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +339

We report a day-scale hard lag between GeV and TeV -ray emission from the HBL 1ES~1959+650 in early 2024. Since the LHAASO-WCDA real-time monitoring system began operation in la…

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 the…

All-sky search for individual Primordial Black Hole bursts with LHAASO

Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +311

Primordial Black Holes~(PBHs) are hypothetical black holes with a wide range of masses that formed in the early universe. As a result, they may play an important cosmological role…

Evidence for particle acceleration approaching PeV energies in the W51 complex

The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +284

The -ray emission from the W51 complex is widely acknowledged to be attributed to the interaction between the cosmic rays (CRs) accelerated by the shock of supernova remnant (SN…
