How to use molecular clouds to study the propagation of cosmic rays in the Galaxy
Stefano Gabici
Observations of molecular clouds in the gamma ray domain provide us with a tool to study the distribution of cosmic rays in the Galaxy. This is because cosmic rays can penetrate mo…
Discovery and follow-up studies of the extended, off-plane, VHE gamma-ray source HESS J1507-622
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, F. Acero, F. Aharonian +167
Context: The detection of gamma-rays in the very-high-energy (VHE) range (100 GeV-100 TeV) offers the possibility of studying the parent population of ultrarelativistic particles f…
Constraints on the cosmic ray diffusion coefficient in the W28 region from gamma-ray observations
S. Gabici, S. Casanova, F. A. Aharonian +1
GeV and TeV gamma rays have been detected from the supernova remnant W28 and its surroundings. Such emission correlates quite well with the position of dense and massive molecular…
Revisiting the Westerlund 2 Field with the H.E.S.S. Telescope Array
The HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +194
Aims. Previous observations with the H.E.S.S. telescope array revealed the existence of extended very-high-energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) γ-ray emission, HESS J1023-575, coincident with t…
Design Concepts for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
The CTA Consortium
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has had a major breakthrough with the impressive results obtained using systems of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. Ground-based gamma-ray…
A simple model for electron plasma heating in supernova remnants
D. Malyshev, S. Gabici, L. O'C. Drury +1
Context: Multiwavelength observations of supernova remnants can be explained within the framework of diffusive shock acceleration theory, which allows effective conversion of the e…
