High energy processes in microquasars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Microquasars are X-ray binary stars with the capability to generate relativisticjets. It is expected that microquasars are gamma-ray sources, because of the analogy with quasars and because the theoretical models predict emission at such energy range. In

Status and recent high light results from the LHAASO experiment [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
The Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) experiment, fully operational since July 2021, is a cutting-edge facility for detecting cosmic rays and gamma rays across a wide energy range. This paper offers an overview of the current status and

Revision of the γ-Ray Emission from SNR CTB 109 with the Fermi Large Area Telescope

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
CTB 109 is a middle-aged shell-type supernova remnant (SNR) with bright thermal X-ray emission. We reanalyze the GeV γ -ray emission from CTB 109 using 13 yr of Pass 8 data recorded by the Fermi Large Area Telescope.

Gamma ray astronomy above 30 TeV and the IceCube results

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
The study of the diffuse Galactic gamma ray emission is of fundamental importance to understand the properties of cosmic ray propagation in the Milky Way, and extending the measurements to E ≳ 30 TeV is of great interest.

Characteristics of extensive air showers around the energy threshold for ground-particle-based $$\gamma $$ γ -ray observatories

open access: yesEuropean Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2019
Very-high-energy $$\gamma $$ γ -ray astronomy based on the measurement of air shower particles at ground-level has only recently been established as a viable approach, complementing the well established air Cherenkov technique.

Editorial to the Special Issue: “High-Energy Gamma-Ray Astronomy: Results on Fundamental Questions after 30 Years of Ground-Based Observations”

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Gamma-ray astronomy is the observational science that studies the cosmos in the last unexplored electromagnetic window, namely, above the megaelectronvolt (EeV = 106 eV) (MeV) [...]

Advanced γ-Ray Emission Studies of G15.4+0.1 with Fermi-LAT: Evidence of Escaping Cosmic Rays Interacting with Surrounding Molecular Clouds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present an analysis of γ -ray emission in the direction of supernova remnant (SNR) G15.4+0.1 with 13 yr Fermi Large Area Telescope data. There are three point-like GeV sources in this region: one is spatially coincident with the TeV source HESS J1818 ...

Possible Evidence for Lorentz Invariance Violation in Gamma-Ray Burst 221009A

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The preliminary detections of the gamma-ray burst 221009A up to 18 TeV by LHAASO and up to 251 TeV by Carpet 2 have been reported through Astronomer’s Telegrams and Gamma-ray Coordination Network circulars.

INTEGRAL and Nuclear Astrophysics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We briefly review the fundamentals of nuclear gamma-ray line astronomy (radioactive astronomy), focusing on its role to decipher the intimate physics of supernovae, either immediatly (via $^{56}Co)$ or after a time delay (via $^{44}Ti$).
