PREDICTED EXTRAGALACTIC TeV GAMMA-RAY SOURCES
We suggest that low-redshift XBLs (X-ray selected BL Lacertae objects) may be the only extragalactic γ-ray sources observable at TeV energies. We use simple physical considerations involving synchrotron and Compton component spectra for blazars to suggest why the observed TeV sources are XBLs, whereas mostly RBLs and FSRQs are seen at GeV energies. These considerations indicate that the differe...
متن کاملExtragalactic Sources of TeV Gamma Rays: A Summary
The development of techniques whereby gamma rays of energy 100 GeV and above can be studied from the ground, using indirect, but sensitive, techniques has opened up a new area of high energy photon astronomy. The most exciting result that has come from these is the detection of highly variable fluxes of TeV gamma rays from the relativistic jets in nearby AGN. The recent detection of signals fro...
متن کاملPRIMARY SPECTRUM AND COMPOSITION IN THE REGION 10-1000 TeV
The spectra and composition of cosmic ray primaries are being studied by fitting extensive and detailed underground muon data using scaling model calculations of hadronic interactions in the atmosphere. Three types of data have been analyzed: (1) The intensity-depth curve for the total flux of muons. (2) The muon charge ratio. (3) The rates of doubles, triples, and higher multiplicities in the ...
متن کاملThe Particle Content of Extragalactic Jets
Recent radio and x-ray data from radio sources in galaxy clusters are used to place constraints on the particle content and kinematics of jets that supply these radio sources. These data show that the pdV work required to inflate the radio lobes in the ICM exceeds all other estimates of the amount of energy needed to supply the observed radio emission. If the required jet energy density has an ...
