Method for testing diffusive shock acceleration and diffusion propagation of 1-100 TeV cosmic electrons with multiwavelength observations of the Geminga halo and pulsar wind nebula
Weikang Gao, Li-Zhuo Bao, Kun Fang +3
Diffusive shock acceleration and diffusion propagation are essential components of the standard cosmic ray model. These theories are based on extensive observations of high-energy…
SVOM/VT: Real-Time Onboard Data Processing
Hong-Bo Cai, Yu-Lei Qiu, Li-Ping Xin +16
The SVOM Visible Telescope (VT) is critical for the rapid identification of gamma-ray burst (GRB) optical counterparts, particularly for high-redshift candidates that require immed…
SVOM/VT: Flight Model Verification and Pre-launch Testing
Jian Zhang, Xue-Wu Fan, Gang-Yi Zou +23
This paper presents pre-launch testing and calibration results for the SVOM/VT (Space-based Variable Objects Monitor, Visible Telescope) Flight Model (FM), validating its performan…
SVOM/VT: Instrument Overview, Science Objectives, and First-Year Performance
Yu-Lei Qiu, Li-Ping Xin, Jin-Song Deng +22
The 44-cm Visible Telescope (VT) aboard the Space-based Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) is a dual-band (400-650 nm and 650-1000 nm) instrument designed to detect and characterize t…
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…
