    06/06/2018, 16:30
    Oral

    Recent observations of gamma rays with the Fermi-LAT have revealed excess emission from the centers of the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxy, both of unknown origin. In this talk, I will briefly review the current observational status of the excess including morphological and spectral properties. Possible interpretations will be discussed, such as cosmic ray interactions with the interstellar...

  7. 214. A search for primordial black hole evaporation events with the VERITAS experiment
    Benjamin Zitzer

    Oral

    Primordial black holes (PBH) are predicted to form from overdense regions in the early universe. These black holes can lose mass through Hawking radiation. Those PBHs of initial mass of $10^{15}$ g would evaporate in the current epoch, producing a bright burst of gamma rays. Despite the lack of detection from many experiments, the observations of PBH evaporation events provide constraints on...

    Oral

    The Large Array Telescope for Tracking Energetic Sources (LATTES), is a novel concept for a hybrid EAS array detector, composed of a Resistive Plate Counter and a Water Cherenkov Detector, planned to cover gamma-rays from less than 100 GeV up to 100 TeVs. This experiment, to be installed at high altitude in South America, could cover the existing gap in sensitivity between satellite and ground...

  16. 226. Quantum gravity corrections to photon dynamics, white dwarfs and the Big Bang
    Mr Dheeraj Kumar Mishra (The Institute Of Mathematical Sciences, Chennai)
    Oral

    Planck scale acts as a threshold where a new description of spacetime is expected to appear. We consider the invariant Planck scale modified/deformed Poincare algebra proposed by Magueijo and Smolin and study the consequences as the Planck scale corrections to the known physics. We get Planck scale modified dispersion relation and an effective invariant ultraviolet energy cut-off (Planck...
