Very High Energy Photons in Universe
I discuss the recent exciting results of discovery of TeV photons from several galactic and extra-galactic sources, and highlight some objectives of VHE gamma ray astronomy that can be achieved in the near future by means of new generation ground-based detectors.
متن کاملSignature Neutrinos from Ultrahigh-energy Photons
At high red shift, the temperature of cosmic microwave background is sufficiently high for the ultrahighenergy photons to pair-produce muons and pions through interactions with the background photons. At the same time, the radio background and magnetic fields are too weak to drain energy out of the electromagnetic cascade before the muons and pions are produced. Decays of the energetic muons an...
متن کاملTracing very high energy neutrinos from cosmological distances in ice
Astrophysical sources of ultrahigh energy neutrinos yield tau neutrino fluxes due to neutrino oscillations. We study in detail the contribution of tau neutrinos with energies above 106 GeV relative to the contribution of the other flavors. We consider several different initial neutrino fluxes and include tau neutrino regeneration in transit through the Earth and energy loss of charged leptons. ...
متن کاملCometary Knots and High Energy Photons and Neutrinos from Gamma Ray Bursts
The Hubble Space Telescope has recently discovered thousands of gigantic comet-like objects in a ring around the central star in the nearest planetary nebula. We suggest that such circumstellar rings exist around most stars. Collisions of the relativistic debris from gamma ray bursts in dense stellar regions with such gigantic comet-like objects, which have been stripped off from the circumstel...
متن کاملOscillations of very low energy atmospheric neutrinos
There are several new features in production, oscillations and detection of the atmospheric neutrinos of low energies, E < ∼ 100 MeV. The flavor ratio, r, of muon to electron neutrino fluxes is substantially smaller than 2 and decreases with energy, significant part of events is due to the decay of invisible muons at rest, etc. Oscillations in two-layer medium (atmosphere earth) should be taken...
