Massive protostars as gamma-ray sources
Context. Massive protostars have associated bipolar outflows with velocities of hundreds of km s. Such outflows can produce strong shocks when interact with the ambient medium leading to regions of non-thermal radio emission. Aims. We aim at exploring under which conditions relativistic particles are accelerated at the terminal shocks of the protostellar jets and can produce significant gamma-r...
متن کاملRadio supernovae as TeV gamma - ray sources
When applied to the blast wave formed by the explosion of a massive star as a supernova (SN), the theory of diffusive particle acceleration at shock fronts predicts a very high energy density in cosmic rays. Almost immediately after particles begin to be injected into the process, the cosmic ray pressure rises until comparable to the ram-pressure encountered by the shock front. Those supernovae...
متن کاملMicroquasars as high-energy gamma-ray sources
Galactic microquasars are certainly one of the most recent additions to the field of high energy astrophysics and have attracted increasing interest over the last decade. However, the high energy part of the spectrum of microquasars is the most poorly known, mainly due the lack of sensitive instrumentation in the past. Microquasars are now primary targets for all of the observatories working in...
متن کاملTev Gamma - Ray Sources ?
In this paper, we identify Cen A and M87, two nearby Fanaroff-Riley I (FRI) radio galaxies, with high-energy-peaked BL Lac-like (HBL-like) objects by investigating their spectral energy distributions (SEDs). The SED peak of Cen A at ∼150 keV, which was generally believed to be the peak of inverseCompton emission as in the case of 3C 273, is found to be actually the peak of synchrotron emission....
متن کاملExtragalactic Gamma-ray Sources
This chapter provides a review of γ-ray sources lying at high Galactic latitudes. Their statistical properties and variability status, as well as studies involving cross correlations with lower frequency catalogs and multiwavelength observations, are summarized. The case for active galactic nuclei is analyzed with special emphasis, since they represent the largest population of high energy sour...
