Using publicly available Monte Carlo codes as well as compilation of published data on p--p interactions for proton kinetic energy below 2 GeV, we parametrize the energy spectra and production rates of $\gamma$-rays by simple but quite accurate ($\leq 20 \%$) analytical expressions in a broad range from the kinematic threshold to PeV energies.

  1. Temporal evolution of the periodic GeV signal from 4FGL J1913.2+0512 and analysis of the SS 433 / W50 lobes

    astro-ph.HE 2026-05 conditional novelty 5.0

    Fermi LAT data analysis detects a time-evolving ~162-day periodic GeV signal from 4FGL J1913.2+0512 linked to SS 433, prominent in 2008-2018 but diminished afterward, indicating multi-year evolution in gamma-ray produ...

  2. Diffuse gamma-ray emission in the vicinity of open cluster Berkeley 87

    astro-ph.HE 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    Diffuse gamma-ray emission detected toward Berkeley 87 with 0.36° extension and photon index 2.68, favoring a hadronic origin due to dense gas and stellar winds.

  3. CTAO Simulations for Potential PeVatron Candidates

    astro-ph.HE 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    CTAO simulations exclude Cassiopeia A, RX J1713.7-3946, and HESS J1731-347 as PeVatrons via PTS metric while HAWC J2227+610 stays inconclusive, with 100 hours required to resolve proton cut-offs near 600 TeV.
