Fermi-LAT discovery of GeV gamma-ray emission from the young supernova remnant Cassiopeia A.
(IOP Publishing, 2010)
We report on the first detection of GeV high-energy gamma-ray emission from a young supernova remnant (SNR) with the Large Area Telescope aboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. These observations reveal a source with ...
Probing millisecond pulsar emission geometry using light curves from the Fermi/Large Area Telescope
(IOP Publishing, 2009)
An interesting new high-energy pulsar sub-population is emerging following early discoveries of gamma-ray
millisecond pulsars (MSPs) by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). We present results from three-dimensional
emission ...
Fermi LAT discovery of extended gamma-ray emission in the direction of supernova remnant W5IC
(IOP Publishing, 2009)
The discovery of bright gamma-ray emission coincident with supernova remnant (SNR) W51C is reported using the Large Area Telescope (LAT) onboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. W51C is a middle-aged remnant (~104 yr) ...
Modeling phase-aligned gamma-ray and radio millisecond pulsar light curves
(IOP Publishing, 2012)
Since the discovery of the first eight gamma-ray millisecond pulsars (MSPs) by the Fermi Large Area Telescope, this population has been steadily expanding. Four of the more recent detections, PSR J0034–0534, PSR J1939+2134 ...
H.E.S.S. and Suzaku observations of the Vela X pulsar wind nebula
(EDP Sciences, 2019)
Context. Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) represent the most prominent population of Galactic very-high-energy gamma-ray sources and are thought to be an efficient source of leptonic cosmic rays. Vela X is a nearby middle-aged ...
Particle diffusion and localized acceleration in inhomogeneous AGN jets. II. Stochastic variation
(Oxford Univ Press, 2016)
We study the stochastic variation of blazar emission under a 2D spatially resolved leptonic jet model we previously developed. Random events of particle acceleration and injection in small zones within the emission region ...
Relativistic shear flow between electron-ion and electron-positron plasmas and astrophysical applications
(IOP, 2017)
We present particle-in-cell simulation results of relativistic shear boundary layers between electron–ion and
electron–positron plasmas and discuss their potential applications to astrophysics. Specifically, we find that ...
A numerical model of parsec-scale SSC morphologies and their radio emission
(AAS, 2016)
In current models for jets of active galactic nuclei and their emission a shortcoming in the description and understanding of the connection between the largest and smallest scales exists. In this work we present a spatially ...
HESS and Suzaku observations of the Vela X pulsar wind nebula
(EDP Sciences, 2019)
Context. Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) represent the most prominent population of Galactic very-high-energy gamma-ray sources and are thought to be an efficient source of leptonic cosmic rays. Vela X is a nearby middle-aged ...
