4FGL J1844.4–0306: High-energy Emission Likely from the Supernova Remnant G29.37 + 0.1
Very-high-energy (VHE) observations have revealed approximately 100 TeV sources in our Galaxy, and a significant fraction of them are under investigation to understand their origin. We report our study of one of them, HESS J1844−030.

Origin of the Positron Excess with Pulsar Wind Nebulae
AMS-02 has been measured with unprecedented precision data for the positron flux. These data show that there is an excess of cosmic positrons detected for energies above 10 GeV with respect to the well known secondary production which is due to the ...

Diverse Features of the Multiwavelength Afterglows of Gamma‐Ray Bursts: Natural or Special?
The detection of optical rebrightenings and X‐ray plateaus in the afterglows of gamma‐ray bursts (GRBs) challenges the generic external shock model. Recently, we have developed a numerical method to calculate the dynamics of the system consisting of a forward shock and a reverse shock.

X‐Ray Pulsar Profile Recovery Based on Tracking‐Differentiator
The profile recovery is an important work in X‐ray pulsar‐based navigation. It is a key step for the analysis on the pulsar signal’s characteristic and the computing of time of arrival (TOA). This paper makes an argument for an algorithm based on the tracking‐differentiator (TD) to recover the profile from the low Signal‐to‐Noise Ratio (SNR) signals ...

A Dynamical Model for the Evolution of a Pulsar Wind Nebula inside a Non-Radiative Supernova Remnant
A pulsar wind nebula inside a supernova remnant provides a unique insight into the properties of the central neutron star, the relativistic wind powered by its loss of rotational energy, its progenitor supernova, and the surrounding environment.

X-ray morphology of pulsar wind nebulae: the effect of local medium motion
The effect of the relative motion of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) and the local medium on the PWN X-ray morphology isstudied using relativistic MHD modelling.

Astronomical Signatures of Dark Matter
Several independent astronomical observations in different wavelength bands reveal the existence of much larger quantities of matter than what we would deduce from assuming a solar mass to light ratio. They are very high velocities of individual galaxies within clusters of galaxies, higher than expected rotation rates of stars in the outer regions of ...

Bow-shock Pulsar Wind Nebulae Passing Through Density Discontinuities
Bow-shock pulsar wind nebulae are a subset of pulsar wind nebulae that form when the pulsar has high velocity due to the natal kick during the supernova explosion.

Magnetic dissipation in the Crab Nebula [PDF]
Magnetic dissipation is frequently invoked as a way of powering the observed emission of relativistic flows in Gamma Ray Bursts and Active Galactic Nuclei.

Core‐collapse supernovae are dramatic explosions marking the catastrophic end of massive stars. The only means to get direct information about the supernova engine is from observations of neutrinos emitted by the forming neutron star, and through gravitational waves which are produced when the hydrodynamic flow or the neutrino flux is not perfectly ...
