Magic Observations of the Unidentified Γ-ray Source Tev
We observed the first known very high energy (VHE) γ-ray emitting unidentified source, TeV J2032+4130, for 94 hours with the MAGIC telescope. The source was detected with a significance of 5.6σ. The flux, position, and angular extension are compatible with the previous ones measured by the HEGRA telescope system five years ago. The integral flux amounts to (4.5±0.3stat±0.35sys)×10 −13 ph cm s a...
متن کاملHEGRA discovery of the first unidentified TeV source
The first unidentified TeV source in the Cygnus region is confirmed by follow-up observations carried out in 2002 with the HEGRA stereoscopic system of air Cherenkov telescopes. Using the combined 279 h of data, this new source TeV J2032+4130, appears to be steady in flux over the four years of data taking, it shows an extension with radius 6.20, and has a hard spectrum with photon index 1:9 be...
متن کاملHypernova and Gamma-ray Burst Remnants as Tev Unidentified Sources
We investigate hypernova (hyper-energetic supernova) and gamma-ray burst (GRB) remnants in our Galaxy as TeV gamma-ray sources, particularly in the role of potential TeV unidentified sources, which have no clear counterpart at other wavelengths. We show that the observed bright sources in the TeV sky could be dominated by GRB/hypernova remnants, even though they are fewer than supernova remnant...
متن کاملChandra Observation of the Unidentified TeV Gamma-Ray Source HESS J1303−631 in the Galactic Plane
The imaging atmospheric Cherenkov array H.E.S.S. recently discovered an extended source in the 0.4−10 TeV energy range, HESS J1303−631. We obtained a 5 ks observation with the ACIS-I array on the Chandra X-ray observatory that does not reveal an obvious compact or diffuse X-ray counterpart. Archival ROSAT images are also blank in this region. Although there are several radio pulsars within the ...
متن کاملA Radio Counterpart for the Unidentified Tev Source Hess J1813-178: the Radio-gamma-ray Connection
We discovered independently the shell-type supernova remnant G12.82−0.02, recently reported by Brogan et al. (2005), which is coincident with the unidentified TeV gamma-ray source revealed in the HESS survey of the Galactic plane. Estimating the ambient starlight at the location of this source from the integrated Lyα luminosity of the nearby H II region W33, we conclude that inverse Compton emi...
