About this award

The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York received a $14,939.44 research grant from the Shared Services Center with a performance location in New York, NY. The contract, awarded on January 1, 2022, with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2024, is a non-set-aside award structured as a Grant for Research. Columbia University's Sponsored Projects Administration Division will execute this work, leveraging the institution's extensive research capabilities across scientific and technical domains.

The research focuses on 2HWC J1928+177, a bright galactic gamma-ray source detected at energies up to 100 TeV. This represents a peculiar case among High-Altitude Water Cherenkov Gamma-Ray Observatory (HAWC) sources, as neither the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS) nor the High Energy Stereoscopic System (HESS) successfully detected gamma-ray emissions at this location, and no supernova remnant or pulsar wind nebula exists in the vicinity. The investigation includes characterization of a variable X-ray source at the HAWC source position that is potentially associated with a bright infrared source, contributing to the broader understanding of high-energy astrophysical phenomena.

Description

2HWC J1928+177 is a bright galactic gamma-RAY source detected up to 100 TEV. IT is a peculiar hawc source, as veritas and hess failed to detect its gamma-RAY emission and there is no SNR or PWN nearby. At the hawc source position, there is a variabl
