Analysis of Crab X-Ray Polarization Using Deeper Imaging X-Ray Polarimetry Explorer Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present Crab X-ray polarization measurements using Imaging X-Ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) data with a total exposure of 300 ks, three times more than the initial 2022 discovery paper.

The GeV γ-Ray Emission from the Composite Supernova Remnant CTB 87

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report the GeV γ -ray emission around the composite supernova remnant (SNR) CTB 87 with more than 16 yr of PASS 8 data recorded by the Fermi Large Area Telescope. Two separate point sources with different GeV spectra are identified in this region: one

Spectral modelling of a H.E.S.S.-detected pulsar wind nebula [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
In the last decade ground-based Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes have discovered roughly 30 pulsar wind nebulae at energies above 100 GeV. We present first results from a leptonic emission code that models the spectral energy density of a pulsar wind nebula by solving the Fokker-Planck transport equation and calculating inverse Compton and ...

Potential Contribution of Young Pulsar Wind Nebulae to Galactic High-energy Neutrino Emission

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe), especially the young ones, are among the most energetic astrophysical sources in the Galaxy. It is usually believed that the spin-down energy injected from the pulsars is converted into magnetic field and relativistic ...

Constraining Anisotropic Diffusion between Geminga and Earth with the Cosmic-Ray Electron and Positron Spectrum

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The gamma-ray halo around Geminga indicates significant suppression of cosmic-ray diffusion. One possible explanation for this phenomenon is the projection effect of slow diffusion perpendicular to the mean magnetic field (characterized by the diffusion ...

Particle acceleration in pulsars and pulsar wind nebulae [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
These notes summarise the contents of the lectures I delivered at the International School of Physics "Enrico Fermi" on "Foundations of Cosmic Ray Astrophysics". The lectures were dealing with the physics of Pulsars and Pulsar Wind Nebulae (PWNe) in the Cosmic Ray (CR) perspective.

Study of Magnetic Field and Turbulence in the TeV Halo around the Monogem Pulsar

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Magnetic fields are ubiquitous in the interstellar medium, including extended objects such as supernova remnants and diffuse halos around pulsars. Its turbulent characteristics govern the diffusion of cosmic rays and the multiwavelength emission from ...
