Precise measurements of the cosmic ray proton energy spectrum in the "knee'' region
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +310
We report the high-purity identification of cosmic-ray (CR) protons and a precise measurement of their energy spectrum from 0.15 to 12 PeV using the Large High Altitude Air Shower…
Puzzling Variation of Gamma Rays from the Sun over the Solar Cycle Revealed with Fermi-LAT
A. Acharyya, A. Adelfio, M. Ajello +100
The steady-state gamma-ray emission from the Sun is thought to consist of two emission components due to interactions with Galactic cosmic rays: (1) a hadronic disk component, and…
Constraining the Cosmic-ray Energy Based on Observations of Nearby Galaxy Clusters by LHAASO
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +323
Galaxy clusters act as reservoirs of high-energy cosmic rays (CRs). As CRs propagate through the intracluster medium, they generate diffuse -rays detectable by arrays such as LH…
An Enigmatic PeVatron in an Area around HII Region G35.60.5
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +294
Identifying Galactic PeVatrons (PeV particle accelerators) from the ultra-high-energy (UHE, >100 TeV) -ray sources plays a crucial role in revealing the origin of Galactic cosmi…
Search for Extended GeV Sources in the Inner Galactic Plane
S. Abdollahi, F. Acero, A. Acharyya +108
The recent detection of extended -ray emission around middle-aged pulsars is interpreted as inverse-Compton scattering of ambient photons by electron-positron pairs escaping the…
Detection of two TeV gamma-ray outbursts from NGC 1275 by LHAASO
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Axikegu +275
The Water Cherenkov Detector Array (WCDA) is one of the components of Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) and can monitor any sources over two-thirds of the sky for…
