Observation of Very High Energy Gamma Rays from HESS J1804-216 with CANGAROO-III Telescopes
Y. Higashi, H. Kubo, T. Yoshida +4
We observed the unidentified TeV gamma-ray source HESS J1804-216 with the CANGAROO-III atmospheric Cerenkov telescopes from May to July in 2006. We detected very high energy gamma…
CANGAROO-III Search for Gamma Rays from SN 1987A and the Surrounding Field
R. Enomoto
Optical images of SN 1987A show a triple ring structure. The inner (dust) ring has recently increased in brightness and in the number of hot spots suggesting that the supernova sho…
TeV Gamma-Rays from Old Supernova Remnants
Ryo Yamazaki, Kazunori Kohri, Aya Bamba +3
We study the emission from an old supernova remnant (SNR) with an age of around 10^5 yrs and that from a giant molecular cloud (GMC) encountered by the SNR. When the SNR age is aro…
Galactic modulation of extragalactic cosmic rays: Possible origin of the knee in the cosmic ray spectrum
Hiroshi Muraishi, Shohei Yanagita, Tatsuo Yoshida
The existence of the spectral break around eV in the cosmic ray spectrum (referred to as the `knee') is one of the biggest questions in cosmic ray astrophys…
A Spatial and Spectral Study of Nonthermal Filaments in Historical Supernova Remnants: Observational Results with Chandra
Aya Bamba, Ryo Yamazaki, Tatsuo Yoshida +2
The outer shells of young supernova remnants (SNRs) are the most plausible acceleration sites of high-energy electrons with the diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) mechanism. We stu…
A Search for TeV Gamma-ray Emission from the PSR B1259-63/SS2883 Binary System with the CANGAROO-II 10-m Telescope
A. Kawachi, T. Naito, J. R. Patterson +2
Observations of the PSR B1259-63/SS2883 binary system using the CANGAROO-II Cherenkov telescope are reported. This nearby binary consists of a 48msec radio pulsar in a highly eccen…
