Very high energy gamma-ray observations of the galaxy clusters Abell 496 and Abell 85 with H.E.S.S

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian

Aims: The nearby galaxy clusters Abell 496 and Abell 85 are studied in the very high energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) band to investigate VHE cosmic rays (CRs) in this class of objects wh…

Gamma ray emission and stochastic particle acceleration in galaxy clusters

G. Brunetti, P. Blasi, R. Cassano +1

FERMI (formely GLAST) will shortly provide crucial information on relativistic particles in galaxy clusters. We discuss non-thermal emission in the context of general calculations…

Gamma Ray Astronomy and the Origin of Galactic Cosmic Rays

Stefano Gabici

Diffusive shock acceleration operating at expanding supernova remnant shells is by far the most popular model for the origin of galactic cosmic rays. Despite the general consensus…

The energy spectrum of cosmic-ray electrons at TeV energies

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian

The very large collection area of ground-based gamma-ray telescopes gives them a substantial advantage over balloon/satellite based instruments in the detection of very-high-energy…

On the plasma temperature in supernova remnants with cosmic-ray modified shocks

L. O'C. Drury, F. A. Aharonian, D. Malyshev +1

Context: Multiwavelength observations of supernova remnants can be explained within the framework of the diffusive shock acceleration theory, which allows effective conversion of t…

Probing the Galactic cosmic ray flux with submillimeter and gamma ray data

S. Casanova, S. Gabici, F. A. Aharonian +5

The study of Galactic diffuse radiation combined with the knowledge of the distribution of the molecular hydrogen in the Galaxy offers a unique tool to probe the cosmic ray flu…
