gamma-ray emission from microquasars: a numerical model for LSI+61 303

We explore the possible association between the microquasar LSI+61 303 and the EGRET source 2CG 135+01/3EG J0241$+$6103 by studying, with a detailed numerical model, whether this system can produce the emission and the variability detected by EGRET ($>$100 MeV) through inverse Compton (IC) scattering. Our numerical approach considers a population of relativistic electrons entrained in a cylindrical inhomogeneous jet, interacting with both the radiation and the magnetic fields, taking into account the Thomson and Klein-Nishina regimes of interaction. Our results reproduce the observed spectral characteristics and variability at $\gamma$-rays, thus strengthening the identification of LSI+61 303 as a high-energy $\gamma$-ray source.
