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…
Ultra-high-energy -ray emission associated with the tail of a bow-shock pulsar wind nebula
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +292
In this study, we present a comprehensive analysis of an unidentified point-like ultra-high-energy (UHE) -ray source, designated as 1LHAASO J1740+0948u, situated in the vicinity…
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…
Measurement of Very-high-energy Diffuse Gamma-ray Emissions from the Galactic Plane with LHAASO-WCDA
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +312
The diffuse Galactic gamma-ray emission is a very important tool used to study the propagation and interaction of cosmic rays in the Milky Way. In this work, we report the measurem…
Deep view of Composite SNR CTA1 with LHAASO in -rays up to 300 TeV
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +323
The ultra-high-energy (UHE) gamma-ray source 1LHAASO J0007+7303u is positionally associated with the composite SNR CTA1 that is located at high Galactic Latitude $b\approx 10.5^\ci…
Does or did the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A operate as a PeVatron?
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Q. An +276
For decades, supernova remnants (SNRs) have been considered the prime sources of Galactic Cosmic rays (CRs). But whether SNRs can accelerate CR protons to PeV energies and thus dom…
