Peta-electron volt gamma-ray emission from the Crab Nebula
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +269
The Crab pulsar and the surrounding nebula powered by the pulsar's rotational energy through the formation and termination of a relativistic electron-positron wind is a bright sour…
Physics Performance of the Large-Sized Telescope prototype of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
R. López-Coto, A. Moralejo, M. Artero +15
The Large-Sized Telescope (LST) prototype of the future Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is located at the Northern site of CTA, on the Canary Island of La Palma. It is designed to…
Cross-calibration and combined analysis of the CTA-LST prototype and the MAGIC telescopes
Y. Ohtani, A. Berti, D. Depaoli +13
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the next generation gamma-ray observatory, which will consist of three kinds of telescopes of different sizes. Among those, the Large Si…
Reconstruction of extensive air shower images of the first Large Size Telescope prototype of CTA using a novel likelihood technique
Gabriel Emery, Cyril Alispach, Mykhailo Dalchenko +3
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy aims at reconstructing the energy and direction of gamma rays from the extensive air showers they initiate in the atmosphere. Imaging Atmospheric C…
Commissioning of the camera of the first Large Size Telescope of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
T. Saito, C. Delgado, O. Blanch +30
The first Large Size Telescope (LST-1) of the Cherenkov Telescope Array has been operational since October 2018 at La Palma, Spain. We report on the results obtained during the cam…
Monitoring the pointing of the prototype LST-1 using star reconstruction in the Cherenkov camera
L. Foffano, A. Carosi, M. Dalchenko +3
The first Large-Sized Telescope (LST-1) proposed for the forthcoming Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) has started to operate in 2019 in La Palma. The large structure of LST-1 - with…
Discovery of a new -ray source LHAASO J0341+5258 with emission up to 200TeV
The LHAASO Collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +267
We report the discovery of a new unidentified extended -ray source in the Galactic plane named LHAASO J0341+5258 with a pre-trial significance of 8.2 standard deviations above 2…
Origin and role of relativistic cosmic particles
A. Araudo, G. Morlino, B. Olmi +121
This white paper briefly summarizes the importance of the study of relativistic cosmic rays, both as a constituent of our Universe, and through their impact on stellar and galactic…
Probing Dark Matter and Fundamental Physics with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
F. Iocco, M. Meyer, M. Doro +71
Astrophysical observations provide strong evidence that more than 80% of all matter in the Universe is in the form of dark matter (DM). Two leading candidates of particles beyond t…
Exploring Lorentz Invariance Violation from Ultra-high-energy Gamma Rays Observed by LHAASO
Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian, Q. An +268
Recently the LHAASO Collaboration published the detection of 12 ultra-high-energy gamma-ray sources above 100 TeV, with the highest energy photon reaching 1.4 PeV. The first detect…
Discovery of the Ultra-high energy gamma-ray source LHAASO J2108+5157
The LHAASO collaboration, Zhen Cao, F. Aharonian +267
We report the discovery of a UHE gamma-ray source, LHAASO J2108+5157, by analyzing the LHAASO-KM2A data of 308.33 live days. Significant excess of gamma-ray induced showers is obse…
Extended Very-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emission Surrounding PSR J0622 + 3749 Observed by LHAASO-KM2A
