Research Abstract |
We observed the supernova remnant Cygnus Loop, G8.7-0.1, and W44 with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope and found GeV gamma-ray emission from the surrounding material around them. The gamma-ray data are well modeled with emission due to interactions between cosmic rays accelerated in the SNRs and gas, which provides new systematic constraints on understanding particle acceleration and release in the medium.
