Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The TeV gamma-ray binary LS I +61 303, approximately 2 kpc from Earth, consists of a low mass compact object in an eccentric orbit around a massive Be star. LS I +61 303 exhibits modulated VHE gamma-ray emission around its 26.5 days orbit, with strong-est TeV emission during its apastron passage (orbital phases φ=0.55−0.65). Multiple flaring episodes with nightly flux variability at TeV energies have been observed since its detection in 2006. GeV, X-ray, and radio emission have been detected along the entire orbit, enabling detailed study of the orbital modulation pattern and its super-orbital period. Previously reported TeV baseline emission and spectral variations may indicate a neutron star flip-flop scenario, in which the binary system switches between accretor and propeller phases at different phases of the orbit. Since September 2007, VERITAS has observed LS I +61 303 over three additional seasons, accruing 220+ hours of data during different parts of its orbit. In this work, we present a summary of recent and long-term VERITAS observations of LS I +61 303. This analysis includes a discussion of the observed variation of TeV emission during different phases of the orbit, and during different superorbital phases.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
