Cosmic ray origin: Supernova remnants through the electromagnetic spectrum

Supernova Remnants have long been considered as unique candidates for cosmic-ray sources. Recent observations of several SNRs in X-rays and TeV gamma-rays will help in solving the problem of the origin of cosmic rays and are key to understanding the mechanism of particle acceleration at a propagating shock wave. The observation results of Galactic shell-type supernova remnants at different evolution stages Cas A, Tycho's SNR, γCygni SNR, IC 443 and G166.0+4.3 by the SHALON mirror Cherenkov telescope are presented. For each SNR the SHALON observation results are given with its spectral energy distribution compared with other experimental data and images by SHALON together with data from X-ray by Chandra and radio-data by Canadian Galactic Plane Survey DRAO (CGPS). The comparison of the source's morphology in different energy bands could reveal its essential features as a forward and reverse shock or the location of swept out dense molecular cloud. The experimental data presented here have confirmed the prediction of the theory about the hadronic generation mechanism of very high energy 800 GeV-100 TeV gamma-rays in Tycho's SNR, Cas A and IC 443. Also the collected experimental data help to make clear the origin of TeV gamma-ray emission in the SNRs like γCygni SNR and G166.0+4.3

Unresolved nature source TeV J2032+4130

Cygnus Region contains many objects that are bright in all wavelengths, including one of the most powerful active star formation regions: Cyg OB2, pulsars, and supernova remnants. Some of the sources have been detected at high and very high energies. One of them was discovered due to the proximity to well-known microquasar Cyg X-3 is object TeV J2032+4130. This object is still of unresolved nature and is being intensively studied in the different energy ranges. The numerous X-ray point sources and diffuse X-ray emission regions were found within the TeV J2032+4130 region by Chandra and Suzaku. Intensities detected in X-rays from these regions may favor a scenario with the dominantly nucleonic, not electronic origin of TeV emission. The results of the twenty-year observation of TeV J2032+4130 object by the SHALON experiment are presented. The collected experimental data on fluxes, spectrum shape, and morphology of TeV J2032+413 can help determine an object type and shed light on the source nature
