8 Is a single GeV/TeV emitter possible? The GeV and TeV components are difficult to reconcile with a single IC emitter, Statistically significant exponential cutoff at few GeV would require complex injection spectrum. Víctor Zabalza (MPIK) The GeV and TeV components of LS / 18

9 Is a single GeV/TeV emitter possible? The GeV and TeV components are difficult to reconcile with a single IC emitter, Statistically significant exponential cutoff at few GeV would require complex injection spectrum. In a binary pulsar scenario, most of the energy is injected inside the orbit, but γγ absorption precludes a deep TeV emitter. Víctor Zabalza (MPIK) The GeV and TeV components of LS / 18

10 Is a single GeV/TeV emitter possible? The GeV and TeV components are difficult to reconcile with a single IC emitter, Statistically significant exponential cutoff at few GeV would require complex injection spectrum. In a binary pulsar scenario, most of the energy is injected inside the orbit, but γγ absorption precludes a deep TeV emitter. and a synchroton/ic scenario would require an extremely high magnetic field ( 0 G). Víctor Zabalza (MPIK) The GeV and TeV components of LS / 18

11 Is a single GeV/TeV emitter possible? The GeV and TeV components are difficult to reconcile with a single IC emitter, Statistically significant exponential cutoff at few GeV would require complex injection spectrum. In a binary pulsar scenario, most of the energy is injected inside the orbit, but γγ absorption precludes a deep TeV emitter. and a synchroton/ic scenario would require an extremely high magnetic field ( 0 G). Under synchrotron dominant losses, particle spectrum would evolve towards a particle index of 3, resulting in too soft GeV and TeV spectra. Víctor Zabalza (MPIK) The GeV and TeV components of LS / 18

Efficient pulsar wind confinement and particle acceleration, Efficient non-thermal emission mechanism (IC in dense radiation field). An injected particle spectrum with: High energy cutoff at Ee GeV low acceleration efficiency Low energy cutoff at Ee ( 0) MeV A location close to the compact object provides good temporal behaviour: High emission during superior conjunction Low emission during inferior conjunction Víctor Zabalza (MPIK) The GeV and TeV components of LS / 18

33 Results Good qualitative agreement with GeV/TeV spectra and lightcurves! Doppler boosting at wind standoff emitter is required to avoid symmetrical lightcurve peak and much larger variability fraction. A good fit is obtained with v f 0.2c good test for the presence of boosting! However, X-ray emission is not well reproduced from neither emitter: A stronger magnetic field than B 0.3 G at the Coriolis turnover would result in too soft TeV spectra. The lower electrons energies at wind standoff position require unlikely high magnetic fields to radiate at kev. Víctor Zabalza (MPIK) The GeV and TeV components of LS / 18
