Diffuse $\gamma$-ray emission produced by the interaction of cosmic-ray particles with matter and radiation in the Galaxy can be used to probe the distribution of cosmic rays and their sources in different regions of the Galaxy. With its…
Recent studies suggest that pulsars could be strong sources of TeV muon neutrinos provided positive ions are accelerated by pulsar polar caps to PeV energies. In such a situation muon neutrinos are produced through the delta resonance in…
We derive light curves for the hard gamma-ray emission, at energies up to several TeV, expected from the unique pulsar/Be-star binary system PSR B1259-63. This is the only known system in our galaxy in which a radio pulsar is orbiting a…
The hunt for cosmic TeV particle accelerators is prospering through Imaging Atmospheric Cerenkov Telescopes. We face challenges such as low light levels and MHz trigger rates, and the need to distinguish between particle air showers…
It's generally believed that young and rapidly rotating pulsars are important sites of particle's acceleration, in which protons can be accelerated to relativistic energy above the polar cap region if the magnetic moment is antiparallel to…
