Very high energy particle acceleration powered by the jets of the microquasar SS 433
HAWC Collaboration, A. U. Abeysekara, A. Albert +104
SS 433 is a binary system containing a supergiant star that is overflowing its Roche lobe with matter accreting onto a compact object (either a black hole or neutron star). Two jet…
Variability and Optical Polarization Can Probe the Neutrino and Electromagnetic Emission Mechanisms of TXS~0506+056
Haocheng Zhang, Ke Fang, Hui Li
The association of the high-energy neutrino event IceCube-170922A with the flaring blazar TXS~0506+056 indicates that hadronic processes may operate in a blazar jet. We perform sem…
Large-Amplitude Blazar Polarization Angle Swing as a Signature of Magnetic Reconnection
Haocheng Zhang, Xiaocan Li, Fan Guo +1
Relativistic magnetic reconnection events can widely exist in magnetized plasmas in astrophysical systems. During this process, oppositely directed magnetic field lines reconnect a…
Leptonic and Hadronic Modeling of Fermi-LAT Hard Spectrum Quasars and Predictions for High-Energy Polarization
Vaidehi S. Paliya, Haocheng Zhang, Markus Böttcher +5
We present the results of a study of the time-averaged spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of eight flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) present in the second catalog of high energ…
