Interpretation of the excess of antiparticles within a modified paradigm of galactic cosmic rays

Rui-zhi Yang, Felix Aharonian

We argue that the anomalously high fluxes of positrons and antiprotons found in cosmic rays (CR) can be satisfactorily explained by introducing two additional elements to the curre…

Particle Transport within the Pulsar Wind Nebula HESS J1825-137

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, H. Abdalla, F. Aharonian +225

Aims: We present a detailed view of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) HESS J1825-137. We aim to constrain the mechanisms dominating the particle transport within the nebula, accounting…

Probing the "Sea" of Galactic Cosmic Rays with Fermi-LAT

Felix Aharonian, Giada Peron, Ruizhi Yang +2

High energy rays from Giant Molecular Clouds (GMCs) carry direct information about the spatial and energy distributions of Galactic Cosmic Rays (CRs). The recently released cat…

Massive Stars as Major Factories of Galactic Cosmic Rays

Felix Aharonian, Ruizhi Yang, Emma de Oña Wilhelmi

The identification of major contributors to the locally observed fluxes of Cosmic Rays (CRs) is a prime objective towards the resolution of the long-standing enigma of CRs. We repo…

On the shape of the gamma-ray spectrum around the "-bump"

Rui-zhi Yang, Ervin Kafexhiu, Felix Aharonian

The "pion-decay" bump is a distinct signature of the differential energy spectrum of -rays between 100 MeV and 1 GeV produced in hadronic interactions of accelerated particles (…

Population study of Galactic supernova remnants at very high -ray energies with H.E.S.S.

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, H. Abdalla +252

Shell-type supernova remnants (SNRs) are considered prime candidates for the acceleration of Galactic cosmic rays (CRs) up to the knee of the CR spectrum at $\mathrm{E} \approx \ma…
