An ALMA view of the Jet-Arc CO clouds toward the TeV -ray source HESS J1023-575 and Westerlund 2; Evidence for the footprints of microquasar jets, the very powerful cosmic-ray accelerator in the Galactic disk

Yasuo Fukui, Kisetsu Tsuge, Hidetoshi Sano +7

The TeV -ray source HESS J1023-575 (HESSJ 1023 hereafter) is one of the brightest H.E.S.S. sources near the young massive cluster Westerlund 2. HESS J1023 shows a remarkable pos…

Black Hole Explorer Mission Development in Japan

Kazunori Akiyama, Mareki Honma, Akihiro Doi +21

The Black Hole Explorer (BHEX) is a next-generation space very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) mission concept that will extend existing ground-based millimeter/submillimeter V…

GRB 221009A: Observations with LST-1 of CTAO and Implications for Structured Jets in Long Gamma-Ray Bursts

LST Collaboration, K. Abe, S. Abe +328

GRB 221009A is the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) observed to date. Extensive observations of its afterglow emission across the electromagnetic spectrum were performed, providing…

Gas Kinematics and Cosmic-Ray Acceleration in the Gamma-ray SNRs W41 and G22.7-0.2

Takeru Murase, Hidetoshi Sano, Kohei Matsubara +13

We present a study of the interstellar medium associated with the two middle-aged supernova remnants (SNRs) W41 and G22.7-0.2, both detected in TeV gamma-rays. Using high-angular-r…

Head-tail molecular clouds falling onto the Milky Way disk

Mikito Kohno, Yasuo Fukui, Takahiro Hayakawa +13

We report discovery of two CO clouds which are likely falling down to the Galactic plane at more than km s. The clouds show head-tail distributions elongated perpendicu…

Evidence for protons accelerated and escaped from the Puppis A region using \textit{Fermi}-LAT observations

Roberta Giuffrida, Marianne Lemoine-Gourmard, Marco Miceli +7

Supernova remnants (SNRs) interacting with molecular clouds are interesting laboratories to study the acceleration of cosmic rays and their propagation in the dense ambient medium.…
