Search for new cosmic-ray acceleration sites within the 4FGL catalog Galactic plane sources

LAT Collaboration, S. Abdollahi, F. Acero +117

Cosmic rays are mostly composed of protons accelerated to relativistic speeds. When those protons encounter interstellar material, they produce neutral pions which in turn decay in…
