The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Relativistic electrons are an essential component in many astrophysical sources, and their radiation may dominate the high-energy bands. Inverse Compton (IC) emission is the radiation mechanism that plays the most important role in these bands. The basic

Limits on Leptonic TeV Emission from the Cygnus Cocoon with Swift-XRT
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 γ -ray observations of the Cygnus Cocoon, an extended source surrounding the Cygnus X star-forming region, suggest the presence of a cosmic-ray accelerator reaching energies up to a few PeV.

Evidence for Two Distinct Populations of Kilonova-associated Gamma-Ray Bursts
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Identification of gamma-ray burst (GRB) progenitors based on the duration of their prompt emission ( T _90 ) has faced several roadblocks recently. Long-duration GRBs (with T _90 > 2 s) have traditionally been thought to be originating from the collapse ...

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 GRB 221009A has been referred to as the brightest of all time (BOAT). We investigate the veracity of this statement by comparing it with a half century of prompt gamma-ray burst observations.

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

Two Candidate Pulsar TeV Halos Identified from Property-similarity Studies
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Teraelectronvolt halos have been suggested to be a common phenomenon associated with middle-aged pulsars. Based on our recent work on the middle-aged pulsar J0631+1036, which is the only known source positionally coincident with a hard teraelectronvolt γ

Swift Follow-up of Reported Radio Pulsars at Fermi 4FGL Unassociated Sources
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Following the discovery of radio pulsars at the position of Fermi-LAT unassociated sources by the TRAPUM group, we conduct Swift-XRT observations of six of those 4FGL sources to determine if any pulsar-like X-ray sources are present and to confirm the ...

Prompt gamma-ray methods for industrial process evaluation: A simulation study
Nukleonika, 2022 Radioisotope applications in industrial process inspection and evaluation using gamma-ray emitters provide otherwise unavailable information. Offering alternative gamma-ray sources can support the technology by complementing sources’ availability and ...
