Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A century after their discovery, the origin of cosmic rays remains one of the most enduring mysteries in physics. They can have energies that exceed 1020 eV, a hundred million times as energetic as the most powerful Earth-bound particle accelerators and must therefore be produced in the universe's most violent environments. Direct observation of their origins, however, has proven difficult due to deflection of charged cosmic ray particles in galactic and intergalactic magnetic fields, obscuring their true origins. Astronomy using electrically neutral particles, such as photons and neutrinos, does not, however, share this difficulty. This work presents a search for neutrino emission from one of the primary candidates for the sources of the highest-energy cosmic rays, Gamma-Ray Bursts, using the recently-completed IceCube neutrino telescope located at the South Pole. The null result obtained from this search contradicts well-established predictions for the neutrino flux from Gamma-Ray Bursts if they are the cosmic ray sources, forcing a reevaluation of these theoretical models.
Download or read book The Nature of Unidentified Galactic High Energy Gamma Ray Sources written by Alberto Carramiñana and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Energetic Gamma-Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET) instru ment on the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory left as a legacy its Third Catalog of High Energy Gamma-Ray Sources, whose detections include a large number of blazars, some pulsars, the Large Magellanic Cloud and a solar flare. Most of the newly discovered objects - a majority of the catalog -are unidentified sources, with a clearly predominant Galactic population. Are all these radio-quiet pulsars, like Geminga, or is there a novel type of celestial object, awaiting identification? In spite of the limited angular resolution provided by EGRET and COMPTEL, there is still much to learn about unidentified ,-ray sources: correlation studies, multiwavelength observations and theoretical work can provide valuable clues, specially if these efforts are carried out in a coordinated manner. The aim of this workshop, held from October 9 to 11, 2000, at the Instituto N acional de Astrofisica, Optica y Electronica, at Tonantzintla, Mexico, was to gather experts on the subject, including observational as tronomers specialized in other regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, in an effort to address the question of the Nature of Galactic high-energy gamma-ray sources, both from the theoretical and observational perspec tive, and elaborate schemes for future identification studies which can make use of existing and forthcoming facilities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In January of 2021, the HAWC observatory released their third catalogue of very-high-energy gamma ray sources. In this catalogue, 20 of the 65 sources were labeled unassociated. Meaning of all previously discovered sources, they have no high energy counterpart within 1°. From these 20 sources, it was seen that three sources 3HWC J0621+382, 3HWC J0631+107, and 3HWC J1739+099 were closely associated with pulsars PSR J0622+3749, PSR J0631+1036, and PSR J1740+100 respectively. These pulsars are listed in the ANTF pulsar catalog. It is important that these three sources be further studied, as the pulsar association can give clues regarding the origin of gamma ray acceleration. To expand the investigation of these sources, a morphological and spectral analysis was conducted to determine changes in each source's extension and level of emission. Comparisons between pulsar data and HAWC data were also conducted to verify that each experiment was seeing the same thing. Multiple software packages were utilized to visualize the data. The Multi-Mission Maximum Likelihood framework (3ML) in conjunction with the HAWC accelerated likelihood (HAL) plugin is used to fit source spectrums and determine morphology. After analyzing data from HAWC's datasets of 1,523 days and 2,770 days, it was concluded that each source exhibited significant growth in intensity over time. Future work will include a multi-wavelength analysis using data from other gamma-ray experiments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Space-based laboratory research in fundamental physics is an emerging research discipline that offers great discovery potential and at the same time could drive the development of technological advances which are likely to be important to scientists and technologists in many other different research fields. The articles in this review volume have been contributed by participants of the international workshop "From Quantum to Cosmos : Fundamental Physics Research in Space" held at the Airlie Center in Warrenton, Virginia, USA, on May 21-24, 2006. This unique volume discusses the advances in our understanding of fundamental physics that are anticipated in the near future, and evaluates the discovery potential of a number of recently proposed space-based gravitational experiments. Specific research areas covered include various tests of general relativity and alternative theories, search of physics beyond the Standard Model, investigations of possible violations of the equivalence principle, search for new hypothetical long- and short-range forces, variations of fundamental constants, tests of Lorentz invariance and attempts at unification of the fundamental interactions. The book also encompasses experiments aimed at the discovery of novel phenomena, including dark matter candidates, and studies of dark energy.
