Abstract

The Large Magellanic Cloud, a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, has been observed with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) above an energy of 100 billion electron volts for a deep exposure of 210 hours. Three sources of different types were detected: the pulsar wind nebula of the most energetic pulsar known N 157B, the radio-loud supernova remnant N 132D and the largest non-thermal X-ray shell - the superbubble 30 Dor C. The unique object SN 1987A is, surprisingly, not detected, which constrains the theoretical framework of particle acceleration in very young supernova remnants. These detections reveal the most energetic tip of a gamma-ray source population in an external galaxy, and provide via 30 Dor C the unambiguous detection of gamma-ray emission from a superbubble., Comment: Published in Science Magazine (Jan. 23, 2015). This ArXiv version has the supplementary online material incorporated as an appendix to the main paper

Abstract

In this paper we report on the analysis of all the available optical and very high-energyγ -ray (>200 GeV) data for the BL Lac object PKS 2155-304,collected simultaneously with the ATOM and H.E.S.S. telescopes from 2007 until 2009. This study also includes x-ray (RXTE,Swift) and highenergy -ray (Fermi-LAT) data. During the period analysed,the source was transitioning from its flaring to quiescent optical states,and was characterized by only moderate flux changes at different wavelengths on the timescales of days and months. A flattening of the optical continuum with an increasing optical flux can be noted in the collected dataset,but only occasionally and only at higher flux levels. We did not find any universal relation between the very high-energy γ-ray and optical flux changes on the timescales from days and weeks up to several years. On the other hand,we noted that at higher flux levels the source can follow two distinct tracks in the optical flux-colour diagrams,which seem to be related to distinct γ-ray states of the blazar. The obtained results therefore indicate a complex scaling between the optical and γ-ray emission of PKS 2155-304,with different correlation patterns holding at different epochs,and a γ-ray flux depending on the combination of an optical flux and colour rather than a flux alone.

7. Dark matter subhaloes as gamma-ray sources and candidates in the first Fermi-LAT catalogue.

Abstract

The standard paradigm of hierarchical structure formation in a ⋀CDM universe predicts the presence of dark matter subhaloes, hosted by Milky Way-sized galaxies. Anticipated subhalo masses range from 1010 down to a cut-off mass between 10-3 and 10-11 M☉. If dark matter is composed of heavy self-annihilating or decaying particles, these subhaloes could be visible in the γ-ray band as faint and temporally constant sources without astrophysical counterparts. Based upon realistic subhalo models and current observational constraints on annihilating dark matter scenarios, we predict that one massive Galactic subhalo between 106 and 108 M☉ may already be present in the 11-month catalogue of Fermi-LAT. Indeed, at least twelve objects in the first Fermi catalogue qualify as candidates. The most promising object, 1FGL J0030.7+0724, is investigated in detail using a dedicated Swift X-ray follow-up observation and a refined positional analysis of the 24-month Fermi-LAT data. With the new observations, seven point-like X-ray sources have been discovered, of which SWIFT J003119.8+072454, which coincides with a faint radio source (12mJy at 1.4GHz), serves as a counterpart candidate of 1FGL J0030.7+0724. The broad-band spectral energy distribution is consistent with a high-energy-peaked blazar. However, flux and extent of 1FGL J0030.7+0724 may also be compatible with a dark matter subhalo. Detection of temporal variability or improved astrometry of 1FGL J0030.7+0724 are necessary to rule out or confirm an astrophysical origin. We discuss strategies to identify γ-ray sources that are associated with self-annihilating dark matter subhaloes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Very high energy (VHE) γ-rays have been detected from the direction of the Galactic Centre up to energies . Up to now, the origin of this emission is unknown due to the limited positional accuracy of the observing instruments. One of the counterpart candidates is the supermassive black hole (SMBH) Sgr A*. If the VHE emission is produced within is the Schwarzschild radius) of the SMBH, a decrease of the VHE photon flux in the energy range 100–300 GeV is expected whenever an early-type or giant star approaches the line of sight within ≈ milliarcseconds (mas). The dimming of the flux is due to absorption by pair-production of the VHE photons in the soft photon field of the star, an effect we refer to as pair-production eclipse (PPE). Based upon the currently known orbits of stars in the inner arcsecond of the Galaxy, we find that PPEs lead to a systematic dimming in the 100–300 GeV band at the level of a few per cent and lasts for several weeks. Since the PPE affects only a narrow energy band and is well correlated with the passage of the star, it can be clearly discriminated against other systematic or even source-intrinsic effects. While the effect is too small to be observable with the current generation of VHE detectors, upcoming high count-rate experiments like the Cherenkov telescope array (CTA) will be sufficiently sensitive. Measuring the temporal signature of the PPE bears the potential to locate the position and size of the VHE-emitting region within the inner 1000 rG or in the case of a non-detection exclude the immediate environment of the SMBH as the site of γ-ray production altogether.
