Cygnus X-3: A variable petaelectronvolt gamma-ray source
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +324
We report the discovery of variable -rays up to petaelectronvolt from Cygnus X-3, an iconic X-ray binary. The -ray signal was detected with a statistical significance of ap…
First detection of ultra-high energy emission from gamma-ray binary LS I +61 303
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +320
We report the first detection of gamma-ray emission up to ultra-high-energy (UHE; 100 TeV) emission from the prototypical gamma-ray binary system LS I +61 303 using data from th…
LHAASO observation of Mrk 421 during 2021 March - 2024 March: a comprehensive VHE catalog of multi-timescale outbursts and its time average behavior
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +321
The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) monitors sources within its field of view for up to 7 hours daily, achieving a duty cycle exceeding 98% and an annual point-…
Energy calibration of LHAASO-KM2A using the cosmic ray Moon shadow
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +323
We present a precise measurement of the westward, rigidity-dependent shift of the Moon's shadow using three and a half years of cosmic-ray data collected by the Kilometer Square Ar…
Measurement of attenuation length of the muon content in extensive air showers from 0.3 to 30 PeV with LHAASO
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +323
The attenuation length of the muon content in extensive air showers provides important information regarding the generation and development of air showers. This information can be…
