Diffuse Ultra-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emission From TeV Halos
read the original abstract
The LHAASO Collaboration has recently reported a measurement of the diffuse gamma-ray emission from the Galactic Plane at energies between 10 TeV and 1 PeV. While this emission is brighter than that expected from cosmic-ray interactions in the interstellar medium alone, we show that the intensity, spectrum, and morphology of this excess are in good agreement with that predicted from the "TeV halos" which surround the Milky Way's pulsar population. These results support the conclusion that TeV halos dominate the ultra-high-energy sky, and that these objects convert $\sim 5\%$ of their total spindown power into very-high and ultra-high-energy photons.

Constraining the slow-diffusion zone size and electron injection spectral index for the Geminga pulsar halo
A two-zone diffusion model fitted to HAWC morphology and spectrum data constrains Geminga's slow-diffusion zone to 30-70 pc and injection index p ≤ 2.17, reproducing AMS-02 positrons as a derived outcome.
