Detection of the Characteristic Pion-Decay Signature in Supernova Remnants
LAT collaboration, M. Ackermann, M. Ajello +167
Cosmic rays are particles (mostly protons) accelerated to relativistic speeds. Despite wide agreement that supernova remnants (SNRs) are the sources of galactic cosmic rays, unequi…
Binary Millisecond Pulsar Discovery via Gamma-Ray Pulsations
H. J. Pletsch, L. Guillemot, H. Fehrmann +150
Millisecond pulsars, old neutron stars spun-up by accreting matter from a companion star, can reach high rotation rates of hundreds of revolutions per second. Until now, all such "…
Identification of HESS J1303-631 as a Pulsar Wind Nebula through gamma-ray, X-ray and radio observations
The H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, A. Abramowski +196
The previously unidentified very high-energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) γ-ray source HESS J1303-631, discovered in 2004, is re-examined including new data from the H.E.S.S. Cherenkov teles…
Discovery of gamma-ray emission from the extragalactic pulsar wind nebula N157B with the High Energy Stereoscopic System
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +195
We present the significant detection of the first extragalactic pulsar wind nebula (PWN) detected in gamma rays, N157B, located in the large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Pulsars with hi…
