3HWC: The Third HAWC Catalog of Very-High-Energy Gamma-ray Sources
read the original abstract
We present a new catalog of TeV gamma-ray sources using 1523 days of data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory. The catalog represents the most sensitive survey of the Northern gamma-ray sky at energies above several TeV, with three times the exposure compared to the previous HAWC catalog, 2HWC. We report 65 sources detected at $\geq$ 5 sigma significance, along with the positions and spectral fits for each source. The catalog contains eight sources that have no counterpart in the 2HWC catalog, but are within $1^\circ$ of previously detected TeV emitters, and twenty sources that are more than $1^\circ$ away from any previously detected TeV source. Of these twenty new sources, fourteen have a potential counterpart in the fourth \textit{Fermi} Large Area Telescope catalog of gamma-ray sources. We also explore potential associations of 3HWC sources with pulsars in the ATNF pulsar catalog and supernova remnants in the Galactic supernova remnant catalog.

Hadronic Origin of Sub-PeV Gamma-Ray Emission from LHAASO J0621+3755
Hadronic proton-proton interactions in a superdiffusive one-zone model with proton luminosity 0.14 of spin-down power and diffusion index 1.05 reproduce the 7-200 TeV gamma-ray spectrum from PSR J0622+3749 halo at amb...

Resolving diffusion signatures in distant pulsar halos with current and future experiments
Simulations indicate that CTA's angular resolution and LHAASO-KM2A's large area will improve morphological separation of diffusion-based pulsar halos from simpler spatial models.
