The Western Jet of SS 433/W50: Hard X-ray Emission, Spectral Evolution, and Comparison to the Eastern Jet
Brydyn Mac Intyre, Samar Safi-Harb, Dmitry Khangulyan +5
The W50 nebula powered by the microquasar SS 433 is a unique laboratory for exploring several fundamental astrophysical phenomena. This study presents observations from NuSTAR and…
Ultrahigh-Energy Gamma-ray Emission Associated with Black Hole-Jet Systems
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, Felix Aharonian +315
Black holes (BH), one of the most intriguing objects in the universe, can manifest themselves through electromagnetic radiation initiated by the accretion flow. Some stellar-mass B…
Detection of very high-energy gamma-ray emission from the radio galaxy M87 with LHAASO
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Axikegu +292
The nearby radio galaxy M87 is a very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emitter established by observations with ground-based gamma-ray detectors. Here we report the long-term monitoring…
Gamma-Ray and AntiMatter Survey(GRAMS) experiment
J. Zeng, T. Aramaki, D. Ames +62
The Gamma-Ray and AntiMatter Survey (GRAMS) is a next-generation experiment using a Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC) detector to measure MeV gamma rays and antiparticl…
A Giant Peanut-shaped Ultra-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emitter Off the Galactic Plane
Zhen Cao, Felix Aharonian, Yunxiang Bai +312
Ultra-high-energy (UHE), exceeding 100 TeV (10^12 electronvolts), γ-rays manifests extreme particle acceleration in astrophysical sources. Recent observations by γ-ray telescopes…
The first proper motion measurement of the acceleration regions in the large-scale jets of SS 433 powering the W50 nebula
Naomi Tsuji, Yoshiyuki Inoue, Dmitry Khangulyan +10
We report on new Chandra ACIS-I observations of the X-ray knots located in the western and eastern lobes of W50 associated with the parsec-scale jets of the Galactic microquasar SS…
