Gamma-rays from the pulsar wind nebulae
We investigate the radiation processes inside supernova remnants which are powered by young pulsars. Using recent model for particle acceleration by the pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe), in which positrons gain energy in the process of resonant scattering by the heavy nuclei, we construct the time dependent radiation model for the PWNe. In this model, the spectra of relativistic particles, injected i...
متن کاملShort versus Long Gamma–Ray Bursts: spectra, energetics, and luminosities
We compare the spectral properties of 79 short and 79 long Gamma–Ray Bursts (GRBs) detected by BATSE and selected with the same limiting peak flux. Short GRBs have a low–energy spectral component harder and a peak energy slightly higher than long GRBs, but no difference is found when comparing short GRB spectra with those of the first 1–2 sec emission of long GRBs. These results confirm earlier...
متن کاملVery High Energy Gamma Rays from the Vela Pulsar Direction
We have observed the Vela pulsar region at TeV energies using the 3.8 m imaging Čerenkov telescope near Woomera, South Australia between January 1993 and March 1995. Evidence of an unpulsed gamma-ray signal has been detected at the 5.8 σ level. The detected gamma-ray flux is (2.9± 0.5± 0.4)× 10 photons cm sec above 2.5± 1.0 TeV and the signal is consistent with steady emission over the two year...
متن کاملVery High Energy Gamma Rays from the Vela Pulsar/nebula
We have observed the Vela pulsar region at TeV energies using the 3.8 m imaging Čerenkov telescope near Woomera, South Australia every year since 1992. This is the first concerted search for pulsed and unpulsed emission from the Vela region, and the imaging technique also allows the location of the emission within the field of view to be examined. A significant excess of gamma-ray-like events i...
متن کاملTeV gamma-rays from the Northern sky pulsar wind nebulae
We estimate the TeV γ-ray fluxes expected from the population of young pulsars in terms of the self-consistent time dependent hadronic-leptonic model for the high energy processes inside the pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe). This radiation model bases on the hypothesis of Arons and collaborators who postulate that leptons are accelerated inside the nebulae as a result of resonant scattering on heavy ...
