TeV Gamma - Ray Observations and the Origin of Cosmic Rays
The present final part of a triad of plenary talks on the results of high energy gamma-ray astronomy and the origin of Cosmic Rays is primarily devoted to the physics interpretation. I will start with the stereoscopic method of operating several imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes in coincidence as pioneered by HEGRA, and a summary description of the results obtained. Then I will turn to t...
متن کاملGamma Ray Astronomy and the Origin of Galactic Cosmic Rays
Diffusive shock acceleration operating at expanding supernova remnant shells is by far the most popular model for the origin of galactic cosmic rays. Despite the general consensus received by this model, an unambiguous and conclusive proof of the supernova remnant hypothesis is still missing. In this context, the recent developments in gamma ray astronomy provide us with precious insights into ...
متن کاملDiscovery of Tev Gamma Rays from Sn1006: Further Evidence for the Snr Origin of Cosmic Rays
This paper reports the first discovery of TeV gamma-ray emission from a supernova remnant made with the CANGAROO 3.8 m Telescope. TeV gamma rays were detected at the sky position and extension coincident with the north-east (NE) rim of shell-type Supernova remnant (SNR) SN1006 (Type Ia). SN1006 has been a most likely candidate for an extended TeV Gamma-ray source, since the clear synchrotron X-...
متن کاملNeutrinos and gamma-rays of hadronic origin from AGN jets
We discuss the fluxes of high energy neutrinos and gamma-rays expected from AGNs if hadrons can be effectively accelerated to ultra-high energies by their relativistic jets, as currently believed. Fluxes of multi-TeV neutrinos detectable by km-scale detectors like IceCube could be expected from powerful blazars where strong accretiondisk radiation is present in the AGN cores. Gamma-ray fluxes o...
متن کاملLeptonic origin of TeV gamma-rays from Supernova Remnants
The lineless power-law emission observed by ASCA from the northeastern rim of the supernova remnant SN1006 has recently been interpreted as synchrotron radiation of electrons with energies around 100 TeV. In this letter we calculate the flux of inverse Compton emission at TeV photon energies that is a natural consequence of the existence of such high energy electrons and the cosmic microwave ba...
