Energy-Dependent Shifts of Medium-Scale Anisotropies in Very-High-Energy Cosmic Rays Observed by LHAASO-KM2A
The LHAASO collabration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +310
Small deviations from isotropy in the arrival directions of Galactic cosmic rays serve as a unique probe of the local magnetic environment. In this Letter, we report observations o…
Cygnus X-3: A variable petaelectronvolt gamma-ray source
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +324
We report the discovery of variable -rays up to petaelectronvolt from Cygnus X-3, an iconic X-ray binary. The -ray signal was detected with a statistical significance of appr…
LHAASO Detection of Ultra-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emission toward the Giant Molecular Clouds
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +310
The -ray from Giant molecular clouds (GMCs) is regarded as the most ideal tool to perform in-situ measurement of cosmic ray (CR) density and spectra in our Galaxy. We report the…
A Giant Peanut-shaped Ultra-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emitter Off the Galactic Plane
Zhen Cao, Felix Aharonian, Yunxiang Bai +312
Ultra-high-energy (UHE), exceeding 100 TeV (10^12 electronvolts), γ-rays manifests extreme particle acceleration in astrophysical sources. Recent observations by γ-ray telescopes,…
Strong gravitational-wave lensing posterior odds
Otto A. Hannuksela, K. Haris, Justin Janquart +4
Like light, gravitational waves are gravitationally lensed by intervening massive astrophysical objects, such as galaxies, clusters, black holes, and stars, resulting in a variety…
Energy calibration of LHAASO-KM2A using the cosmic ray Moon shadow
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +323
We present a precise measurement of the westward, rigidity-dependent shift of the Moon's shadow using three and a half years of cosmic-ray data collected by the Kilometer Square Ar…
Spin Precession Signatures as an Indicator of Microlensing in Strongly Lensed Gravitational Waves
Xikai Shan, Huan Yang, Shude Mao +1
Microlensing by the stellar field in a strong-lensing galaxy can introduce wave-optics distortions into the waveforms of strongly lensed gravitational waves (SLGWs). If these signa…
Weak Lensing Approximation of Wave-optics Effects from General Symmetric Lens Profiles
Zhao-Feng Wu, Otto A. Hannuksela, Martin Hendry +1
Gravitational lensing of electromagnetic (EM) waves has yielded many profound discoveries across fundamental physics, astronomy, astrophysics, and cosmology. Similar to EM waves, g…
LensingFlow: An Automated Workflow for Gravitational Wave Lensing Analyses
Mick Wright, Justin Janquart, Paolo Cremonese +18
In this work, we present LensingFlow. This is an implementation of an automated workflow to search for evidence of gravitational lensing in a large series of gravitational wave eve…
All-sky search for individual Primordial Black Hole bursts with LHAASO
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +311
Primordial Black Holes~(PBHs) are hypothetical black holes with a wide range of masses that formed in the early universe. As a result, they may play an important cosmological role…
Precise measurements of the cosmic ray proton energy spectrum in the "knee'' region
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +310
We report the high-purity identification of cosmic-ray (CR) protons and a precise measurement of their energy spectrum from 0.15 to 12 PeV using the Large High Altitude Air Shower…
Study of Ultra-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Source 1LHAASO J0056+6346u and Its Possible Origins
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Y. X. Bai +322
We report a dedicated study of the newly discovered extended UHE -ray source 1LHAASO J0056+6346u. Analyzing 979 days of LHAASO-WCDA data and 1389 days of LHAASO-KM2A data, we ob…
Multi-messenger Gravitational Lensing
Graham P. Smith, Tessa Baker, Simon Birrer +38
We introduce the rapidly emerging field of multi-messenger gravitational lensing - the discovery and science of gravitationally lensed phenomena in the distant universe through the…
Residual test to search for microlensing signatures in strongly lensed gravitational wave signals
Eungwang Seo, Xikai Shan, Justin Janquart +3
When a gravitational wave signal encounters a massive object, such as a galaxy or galaxy cluster, it undergoes strong gravitational lensing, producing multiple copies of the origin…
Ultra-high-energy -ray emission associated with the tail of a bow-shock pulsar wind nebula

Constraining the Cosmic-ray Energy Based on Observations of Nearby Galaxy Clusters by LHAASO
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +323
Galaxy clusters act as reservoirs of high-energy cosmic rays (CRs). As CRs propagate through the intracluster medium, they generate diffuse -rays detectable by arrays such as LH…
