Gamma-Rays from Positron Annihilation
SPI on INTEGRAL has provided spectra and a map of the sky in the emission from annihilations of positrons in the interstellar medium of our Galaxy. From high-resolution spectra we learned that a warm, partially-ionized medium is the site where the observed gamma-rays originate. The gamma-ray emission map shows a major puzzle for broader astrophysics topics, as it is dominated by a bright and ex...
متن کاملGamma rays from molecular clouds
It is believed that the observed diffuse gamma ray emission from the galactic plane is the result of interactions between cosmic rays and the interstellar gas. Such emission can be amplified if cosmic rays penetrate into dense molecular clouds. The propagation of cosmic rays inside a molecular cloud has been studied assuming an arbitrary energy and space dependent diffusion coefficient. If the ...
متن کاملGamma-Rays from Intergalactic Shocks
Structure formation in the intergalactic medium (IGM) produces large-scale, collisionless shock waves, where electrons can be accelerated to highly relativistic energies. Such electrons can Compton scatter cosmic microwave background photons up to γ-ray energies. We study the radiation emitted in this process using a hydrodynamic cosmological simulation of a ΛCDM universe. The resulting radiati...
متن کاملgamma rays from neutralino annihilation.
We calculate the ux of cosmic gamma rays expected from the annihilation of neutralinos in the Galactic halo. Our calculation of the annihilation cross section to two photons improves the existing calculations by inclusion of exact one-loop diagrams for the amplitudes involving Higgs boson and chargino states as well as those involving fermion and sfermion states. A survey of supersymmetric para...
متن کاملGamma Rays from Millisecond Pulsars
We estimate the contribution of millisecond pulsars to the diffuse gamma-ray background of the Galaxy, and show that a significant fraction of the Galactic background may originate from them. A small number of the unidentified COS-B point sources may, in fact, be millisecond pulsars. It is argued that several hundred millisecond pulsars may be detectable as point sources by the GRO satellite.
