It is well established that phenomenological two-zone diffusion models of the galactic halo can very well reproduce cosmic-ray nuclear data and the observed antiproton flux. Here, we consider lepton propagation in such models and compute…
The HAWC Collaboration has recently reported the detection of bright and spatially extended multi-TeV gamma-ray emission from Geminga, Monogem, and a handful of other nearby, middle-aged pulsars. The angular profile of the emission observed…
We present predictions for the galaxy-galaxy lensing profile from the EAGLE hydrodynamical cosmological simulation at redshift z=0.18, in the spatial range 0.02 < R/(Mpc/h) < 2, and for five logarithmically equi-spaced stellar mass bins in…
$\textit{Herschel}$ observations of far infrared N$^+$ emission lines have demonstrated that dense plasma, with $n_e\sim30\,{\rm cm^{-3}}$, is ubiquitous in the inner Galactic plane. By combining the information from $\textit{Herschel}$…
Pulsar halos (also termed 'TeV halo') are a new class of $\gamma$-ray sources in Galaxy, which manifest as extended $\gamma$-ray emission around middle-age pulsars, as discovered around the Geminga pulsar, the Monogem pulsar and…
A new model of the Milky Way (MW) halo component of the dispersion measure (DM) for extragalactic sources, such as fast radio bursts (FRBs), is presented in light of recent diffuse X-ray observations. In addition to the spherical component…

The Parkes 20 cm Multibeam pulsar surveys have discovered nearly half of the known pulsars and revealed many distant pulsars with high dispersion measures. Using a sample of 1,301 pulsars from these surveys, we have explored the spatial…
We present a list of 109 pulsars with independent distance information compiled from the literature. Since the compilation of Frail & Weisberg, there are 35 pulsars with new distance estimate and 25 pulsars for which the distance or…
We have studied the radial distribution and luminosity function of normal pulsars in the Galaxy, on the basis of the ATNF Pulsar Catalogue where the distances are calculated according to the new electron density model NE2001. We show that…
The Tibet AS$\gamma$ and LHAASO collaborations recently reported the observation of a $\gamma$-ray diffuse emission with energy up to the PeV from the Galactic plane. We discuss the relevance of non-uniform cosmic-ray transport scenarios…
(Abridged) Axisymmetric models of the Milky Way exhibit strong interrelations between the Galactic constants (R_0 and T_0), the stellar columndensity (S_*) and the shape of the dark matter (DM) halo. Here we present analytical relations…
With the breakthrough in PeV gamma-ray astronomy brought by the LHAASO experiment, the high-energy sky is getting richer than before. Lately, LHAASO Collaboration reported the observation of a gamma-ray diffuse emission with energy up to…
Through high-precision radio timing observations, we show that five recycled pulsars in the direction of the Galactic Centre (GC) have anomalous spin period time derivative ($\dot P$) measurements -- PSRs J1748$-$3009, J1753$-$2819,…
Recent experiments have measured the Galactic $\gamma$-ray diffuse emission up to PeV energies, opening a window to study acceleration of Galactic cosmic rays and their propagation up to the cosmic-ray knee. Furthermore, these observations…
In a previous paper, we calculated numerical hydrodynamic models of the interstellar medium in the Galaxy, which suggested that hot gas (T $\ge$ 3 $\times$ 10$^5$ K) has a filling factor near 50\% in the midplane (Rosen \& Bregman 1995, ApJ…
Simulations of Galactic CR transport were performed with the software GALPROP, with the resulting gamma-ray flux calculated up to the PeV regime. The impact of altering parameters such as the number and distribution of CR sources, the…

The Galactic gamma-ray diffuse emission (GDE) is emitted by cosmic rays (CRs), ultra-relativistic protons and electrons, interacting with gas and electromagnetic radiation fields in the interstellar medium. Here we present the analysis of…
The TeV $\gamma$-ray halo around the Geminga pulsar is an important indicator of cosmic-ray (CR) propagation in the local zone of the Galaxy as it reveals the spatial distribution of the electrons and positrons escaping from the pulsar.…
