Spectral energy distribution of the gamma - ray microquasar LS 5039
The microquasar LS 5039 has recently been detected as a source of very high energy (VHE) γ-rays. This detection, that confirms the previously proposed association of LS 5039 with the EGRET source 3EG J1824−1514, makes of LS 5039 a special system with observational data covering nearly all the electromagnetic spectrum. In order to reproduce the observed spectrum of LS 5039, from radio to VHE γ-r...

متن کاملDiscovery of a high-energy gamma-ray-emitting persistent microquasar
Microquasars are stellar x-ray binaries that behave as a scaled-down version of extragalactic quasars. The star LS 5039 is a new microquasar system with apparent persistent ejection of relativistic plasma at a 3-kiloparsec distance from the sun. It may also be associated with a gamma-ray source discovered by the Energetic Gamma Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET) on board the COMPTON-Gamma Ray Obs...
متن کاملA numerical model for the γ - ray emission of the microquasar LS 5039
The possible association between the microquasar LS 5039 and the EGRET source 3EG J1824−1514 suggests that microquasars could also be sources of high-energy γ-rays. In this paper, we explore, with a detailed numerical model, if this system can produce the emission detected by EGRET (>100 MeV) through inverse Compton (IC) scattering. Our numerical approach considers a population of relativistic ...
