CTA and cosmic-ray diffusion in molecular clouds
G. Pedaletti, D. F. Torres, S. Gabici +3
Molecular clouds act as primary targets for cosmic-ray interactions and are expected to shine in gamma-rays as a by-product of these interactions. Indeed several detected gamma-ray…
Monte Carlo design studies for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
K. Bernlöhr, A. Barnacka, Y. Becherini +36
The Cherenkov Telescopes Array (CTA) is planned as the future instrument for very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray astronomy with a wide energy range of four orders of magnitude and an…
Binaries with the eyes of CTA
J. M. Paredes, W. Bednarek, P. Bordas +20
The binary systems that have been detected in gamma rays have proven very useful to study high-energy processes, in particular particle acceleration, emission and radiation reproce…
Gamma-ray signatures of cosmic ray acceleration, propagation, and confinement in the era of CTA
F. Acero, A. Bamba, S. Casanova +11
Galactic cosmic rays are commonly believed to be accelerated at supernova remnants via diffusive shock acceleration. Despite the popularity of this idea, a conclusive proof for its…
Prospects for Observations of Pulsars and Pulsar Wind Nebulae with CTA
E. de Ona Wilhelmi, B. Rudak, J. A. Barrio +11
The last few years have seen a revolution in very-high gamma-ray astronomy (VHE; E>100 GeV) driven largely by a new generation of Cherenkov telescopes (namely the H.E.S.S. telescop…
Discovery of VHE emission towards the Carina arm region with the H.E.S.S. telescope array: HESS J1018-589
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +195
The observational coverage with HESS of the Carina region in VHE gamma-rays benefits from deep exposure (40 h) of the neighboring open cluster Westerlund 2. The observations have r…
