Spectrum and Morphology Analysis of Source HAWC J2031+415

ORAL

Abstract

The Cygnus Cocoon region is a complex region containing an OB star cluster that is prominent in the TeV energy range. Located in this region are two sources seen by the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory: 3HWC J2031+415 and 3HWC J2020+403. 3HWC J2031+415 is a significant TeV gamma-ray source whose emission is a composition of 2 sources: HAWC J2030+409, associated with the Fermi-LAT Cocoon and HAWC J2031+415, a pulsar wind nebula possibly associate with PSR J2032+4127. 3HWC J2020+403 is composed of one source and is associated with the supernova remnant Gamma Cygni. Using a multi-source fitting algorithm, an investigation of the spectrum and energy morphology of HAWC J2031+415 is presented in this work. Additionally, X-ray observations from Suzaku are used to constrain the leptonic production of gamma rays by the PWN.
