Contribution from TeV halos to the isotropic gamma-ray background
Contribution from TeV halos to the isotropic gamma-ray background
Recent observations have shown that pulsars are surrounded by extended regions which emit TeV-scale gamma rays through the inverse Compton scattering of very high energy electrons and positrons. Such TeV halos are responsible for a large fraction of the Milky Way's TeV-scale gamma-ray emission. In this paper, we calculate the …
