Search for Ultra-Relativistic Magnetic Monopoles with LHAASO-KM2A
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +335
Ultra-relativistic magnetic monopoles traversing the atmosphere are expected to initiate extensive air showers characterized by a muon deficit and a compact lateral profile. Using…
Simulation Study of Reconstruction of Cosmic Ray Extensive Air Shower with Thermal Neutron Detected by ENDA
Fan-Ping Li, Xin-Hua Ma, Hu Liu +25
In the investigation of the "knee" region within the cosmic ray energy spectrum, extensive air shower (EAS) reconstruction by using different EAS secondary particles are of paramou…
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…
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…
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 emissio…
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…
LHAASO observation of Mrk 421 during 2021 March - 2024 March: a comprehensive VHE catalog of multi-timescale outbursts and its time average behavior
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +321
The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) monitors sources within its field of view for up to 7 hours daily, achieving a duty cycle exceeding 98% and an annual point-…
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 appr…
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…
