The Crab Pulsar and Nebula as Seen in Gamma-Rays

Universe, 2021
Slightly more than 30 years ago, Whipple detection of the Crab Nebula was the start of Very High Energy gamma-ray astronomy. Since then, gamma-ray observations of this source have continued to provide new surprises and challenges to theories, with the ...

Galactic Diffuse γ-Ray Emission from GeV to PeV Energies in Light of Up-to-date Cosmic-Ray Measurements

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Diffuse γ -ray emission between 10 and 1000 TeV from the Galactic plane was recently measured by the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO).

Gamma ray astronomy [PDF]

Vistas in Astronomy, 1982
Cosmic gamma rays, the physical processes responsible for their production and the astrophysical sites from which they were seen are reported. The bulk of the observed gamma ray emission is in the photon energy range from about 0.1 MeV to 1 GeV, where observations are carried out above the atmosphere.

Radio and γ-ray Evidence for the Supernova Origin of High-velocity Cloud Complex M

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Using λ 21 cm galactic neutral hydrogen data from the HI4PI survey and 0.75–30 MeV γ -ray emission from the Imaging Compton Telescope, we have searched for the origin event that accelerated high-velocity cloud Complex M.

Predicting community college astronomy performance through logistic regression [PDF]

Physical Review Physics Education Research.19(2023), 2023
The present study examined demographic and academic predictors of astronomy performance of community college students enrolled in astronomy courses in a large suburban community college. The theoretical framework was based upon a deconstructive approach for predicting community college performance whereby students academic pathways through higher ...

Gamma ray astronomy with IceCube [PDF]

Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics, 2003
We demonstrate that the South Pole kilometer-scale neutrino observatory IceCube can detect multi-TeV gamma rays continuously over a large fraction of the southern sky. While not as sensitive as pointing atmospheric Cerenkov telescopes, IceCube can roughly match the sensitivity of Milagro.
