The H.E.S.S. collaboration has reported a high-energy spherically symmetric diffuse gamma-ray emission in the inner 50 pc of the Milky Way, up to ~ 50 TeV. Here we propose a leptonic model which provides an alternative to the hadronic…
The gamma-ray binary LS I +61{\deg}303 shows a discontinuity of the periodicity in its GeV emission. In this paper, we show that during the epochs when the timing analysis fails to determine the orbital periodicity, the periodicity is in…
Diffuse gamma-ray emission has long been established as the most prominent feature in the GeV sky. Although the imaging atmospheric Cherenkov technique has been successful in revealing a large population of discrete TeV gamma-ray sources, a…
A simple binary model for Mkn~501 is considered under the assumption that the TeV and X-ray periodicity of $\sim 23$ days, observed during the flaring state in 1997, may be basically interpreted as a doppler-shifted flux modulation due to…
Using 16 years of data collected by Fermi Large Area Telescope and 1523 days of survey data from High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory, we discovered the long-sought second GeV-TeV connection towards the globular cluster (GC) UKS…
The Tibet AS$\gamma$ collaboration has reported a diffuse $\gamma$-ray emission signal from the Galactic Plane. We consider the possibility that the diffuse emission from the outer Galactic Plane at the highest energies is produced by…
Nearby pulsars have been suggested as sources of $\sim$TeV $e^+/e^-$ Cosmic Ray (CR) excess on Earth. The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Observatory (HAWC) detected extended TeV emission regions in the direction of two nearby middle-aged…
The study of cosmic ray anisotropy in the TeV-PeV energy range could provide clues about the origin and propagation of cosmic rays in our galactic neighborhood. Because the observed anisotropy is very small, below the per-mille level, large…
A model is proposed for the observed combination of power-law and thermal emission of keV X-rays from rotationally powered pulsars. For gamma-ray pulsars with accelerators very many stellar radii above the neutron star surface, 100 MeV…
Several binary systems consisting of a massive star and a compact object have been detected above 100 GeV in the Galaxy. In most of these sources, gamma-rays show a modulation associated to the orbital motion, which means that the emitter…
The rapid TeV $\gamma-$ray variability detected in the well-known nearby radio galaxy M87 implies an extremely compact emission region (5-10 Schwarzschild radii) near the horizon of the supermassive black hole in the galactic center. TeV…
We calculate the shape of the large-scale anisotropy of TeV-PeV cosmic-rays (CR) in different models of the interstellar turbulence. In general, the large-scale CR anisotropy (CRA) is not a dipole, and its shape can be used as a new probe…
High energy cosmic ray electrons and positrons probe the local properties of our Galaxy. In fact, electromagnetic energy losses limit the typical propagation scale of GeV-TeV electrons and positrons to a few kpc. In the diffusion model,…
We report the Fermi Large Area Telescope (Fermi-LAT) detection of the gamma-ray emission towards the young massive star cluster RSGC 1. Using the latest source catalog and diffuse background models, we found that the diffuse gamma-ray…
We develop a model for gamma-ray emission from the outer magnetosphere of pulsars (the outer-gap model). The charge depletion causes a large electric field which accelerates electrons and positrons. We solve the electric field with…
Jets of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are established emitters of very high energy (VHE; >100 GeV) gamma-rays. VHE radiation is also expected to be emitted from the vicinity of super-massive black holes (SMBH), irrespective of their activity…
The possibility that rapidly rotating supermassive black holes associated with quasar remnants may provide sites for the acceleration of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) is considered. It is shown that prodigious TeV emission through…

We consider a situation in which a pulsar is formed inside or close to a high density region of a molecular cloud. Right after birth, the pulsar was very active and accelerated hadrons and leptons to very high energies. Hadrons diffuse…
We study the role of local interstellar turbulence in shaping the large-scale anisotropy in the arrival directions of TeV-PeV cosmic-rays (CRs) on the sky. Assuming pitch-angle diffusion of CRs in a magnetic flux tube containing the Earth,…
