Radio and infrared study of the supernova remnant candidate HESS J1912+101

Aims: We provide new insights into the gamma-ray emission from HESS J1912+101, a TeV supernova remnant candidate probably associated with radio pulsar PSR J1913+1011. Methods: obtained observations at 1.5 GHz using VLA in D configuration, purpose of detecting shell putative remnant. In addition, we observed single pointing 6.0 toward J1913+1011 to look for wind nebula. also studied properties surrounding interstellar medium data 13CO, HI, and infrared emissions, public surveys. Results: did not find evidence down sensitivity image GHz. detect faint diffuse around GHz, which could represent nebula powered by pulsar. dense ambient gas 60 km/s, shows good spatial correspondence only western eastern directions. There is near center where weak. Using data, identify an active star-forming region part shell. Conclusions: Based on poor match between (which correlation directions anticorrelation other directions), conclude that hadronic mechanism alone does give satisfactory explanation gamma rays J1912+101. Additional contributions may come leptonic processes remnant, together J1913$+$1011 its and/or region. A confident determination distance necessary determine whether these sources are or just appear superimposed line sight.
