HAWC Study of HESS J1809-193 - a PeVatron candidate in a source rich region
ORAL
Abstract
The region surrounding HESS J1809-193 is a TeV source rich region comprised of multiple source classes such as pulsars and supernovas. The very high energy gamma ray source was first observed by the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) and is marked as a potential PeVatron candidate with an extended morphology. Studies have suggested that the gamma rays follow a hadronic scenario for the source. This work analyzes the region using multiple source models containing different morphologies and energy spectra to describe the emission from the source based on the latest reconstructed data from the High Altitude Water Cherenkov(HAWC) observatory. We will present a measurement of the spectral energy distribution extending the H.E.S.S. measurement beyond 50 TeV.
