We report new radio imaging of the large scale radio structure of M87 with the VLA at 90 cm. These new images show the complex structure of the radio emission more clearly than previous attempts, some of which date back to the 1940's. The…
The production of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos is tightly linked to the emission of hadronic gamma-rays. I will discuss the recent observation of TeV to PeV neutrinos by the IceCube Cherenkov telescope in the context of gamma-ray…
The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Gamma-Ray Observatory is an extensive air shower array located in Puebla, Mexico. The closest radio galaxy within the HAWC field of view, M87, has been detected in very high energies. In this work we…
The spectra of very high energy gamma-radiation from distant extragalactic objects suffer significant deformations during the passage of primary gamma-rays through the intergalactic medium. The recently reported fluxes of diffuse infrared…
The exact location of the $\gamma$-ray emitting region in blazar jets has long been a matter of debate. However, the location has important implications about the emission processes, geometric and physical parameters of the jet, as well as…
Measuring the diffuse Galactic gamma-ray flux in the TeV range is difficult for ground-based gamma-ray telescopes because of the residual cosmic-ray background, which is higher than the gamma-ray flux by several orders of magnitude. Its…
Many of the blazars observed by Fermi actually have the peak of their time-averaged gamma-ray emission outside the $\sim$ GeV Fermi energy range, at $\sim$ MeV energies. The detailed shape of the emission spectrum around the $\sim$ MeV peak…
Both observational and theoretical studies indicate that the central engine of a gamma-ray burst (GRB) is intrinsically time-variable, implying jet inhomogeneity. A jet with an inhomogeneous Lorentz factor distribution develops internal…
The detection of a very-high-energy TeV spectral component in the afterglow emission of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) has opened a new probe into the energetics of ultra-relativistic blast waves and the nature of the circumburst environment in…
Diffuse emission in gamma-rays and neutrinos are produced by the interaction of cosmic rays with the interstellar medium. Below some hundreds of TeV, the sources of these cosmic rays are most likely Galactic. Hence, observations of…
HESS J1731-347 is a shell-type supernova remnant emitting both TeV gamma rays and non-thermal X-ray photons, spatially coincident with the radio SNR G353.6-0.7. Hadronic and leptonic scenarios (or a blend of both) are discussed in the…
Stimulated by recent observations of a radio-to-X-ray synchrotron flare from HST-1, the innermost knot of the M 87 jet, as well as by a detection of a very high energy gamma-ray emission from M 87, we investigated the dynamics and…
Recently observed minute timescale variability of blazar emission at TeV energies has imposed severe constraints on jet models and TeV emission mechanisms. We focus on a robust jet instability to explain this variability. As a consequence…
Microquasars (MQs) are potential candidates to produce a non-negligible fraction of the observed galactic cosmic rays. The protons accelerated at the jet termination shock interact with the interstellar medium and may produce extended…
The middle-aged supernova remnant IC 443 is interacting with molecular gas in its surroundings. $Fermi$-LAT has established that its gamma-ray emission at low energies shows the "pion bump" that is characteristic of hadronic emission. TeV…
Cygnus X-1 is a well observed microquasar. Broadband observations at all wavelengths have been collected over the years. The origin of the MeV tail observed with COMPTEL and INTEGRAL is still under debate and it has mostly been attributed…
Centaurus A, the closest active galaxy, has been detected from radio to high-energy gamma-rays. The synchrotron radiation by extremely high energy protons may be a suitable mechanism to explain the MeV to GeV emission detected by the…
We analyze 10 years of Fermi-LAT data towards the SS433/W50 region. With the latest source catalog and diffuse background models, the gamma-ray excess from SS433/W50 is detected with a significance of 6{\sigma} in the photon energy range of…
The HESS collaboration recently reported highly significant detection of TeV gamma-rays coincident with Sgr A*. In the context of other Galactic Center (GC) observations, this points to the following scenario: In the extreme…
For active galactic nuclei (AGNs) we study the role of the mechanism of quasi-linear diffusion (QLD) in producing the high energy emission in the MeV-GeV domains strongly connected with the submillimeter/infrared radiation. Considering the…
