论文摘要

SNR G106.3+2.7在不同的$γ$ -Ray设施中以1--100的TEV Energies检测到，是最有希望的Pevatron候选者之一。该SNR具有彗星形状，可以分为具有不同物理条件的头部和尾部区域。但是，由于位置精度有限和/或角度分辨率的现有观察数据的有限分辨率，因此尚未确定在哪个区域中产生100 TEV发射。此外，尚不清楚$γ$ ray排放的起源是松弛还是辐射。与较早的$γ$ -Ray数据集相比，这些新魔术数据提供了更好的角度分辨率，我们旨在通过解决SNR G106.3+2.7，并在TEV Energies上解决0.1 $^\ cirt $分辨率来揭示PEV颗粒的加速位点和发射机制。我们检测到延长的$γ$ - 射线发射在空间上与SNR G106.3+2.7的头部和尾部的无线电连续发射相吻合。我们发现，从尾部区域的6.0 TEV高于6.0 TEV的能量的显着$γ$ - 射线的发射仅表明，仅从空气淋浴实验（Milagro，Hawc，tibet as $γ$和LHAASO）检测到的10 TEV以上的排放量仅从SNR尾部发出。在这个假设下，可以用辐射模型或松弛模型来解释头部区域的多波长光谱，而尾部区域的松性模型与超过10 TEV和X射线的发射矛盾。相比之下，HADRONIC模型可以通过假设质子光谱在尾部区域的截止能量为$ \ sim 1 $ PEV来重现尾部的观察到的光谱。可以通过考虑质子过去与目前与周围密度的气体相互作用的情况来解释这种中年SNR（4--10 kyr）中这种高能量发射。

The SNR G106.3+2.7, detected at 1--100 TeV energies by different $γ$-ray facilities, is one of the most promising PeVatron candidates. This SNR has a cometary shape which can be divided into a head and a tail region with different physical conditions. However, it is not identified in which region the 100 TeV emission is produced due to the limited position accuracy and/or angular resolution of existing observational data. Additionally, it remains unclear whether the origin of the $γ$-ray emission is leptonic or hadronic. With the better angular resolution provided by these new MAGIC data compared to earlier $γ$-ray datasets, we aim to reveal the acceleration site of PeV particles and the emission mechanism by resolving the SNR G106.3+2.7 with 0.1$^\circ$ resolution at TeV energies. We detected extended $γ$-ray emission spatially coincident with the radio continuum emission at the head and tail of SNR G106.3+2.7. The fact that we detected a significant $γ$-ray emission with energies above 6.0 TeV from the tail region only suggests that the emissions above 10 TeV, detected with air shower experiments (Milagro, HAWC, Tibet AS$γ$ and LHAASO), are emitted only from the SNR tail. Under this assumption, the multi-wavelength spectrum of the head region can be explained with either hadronic or leptonic models, while the leptonic model for the tail region is in contradiction with the emission above 10 TeV and X-rays. In contrast, the hadronic model could reproduce the observed spectrum at the tail by assuming a proton spectrum with a cutoff energy of $\sim 1$ PeV for the tail region. Such a high energy emission in this middle-aged SNR (4--10 kyr) can be explained by considering the scenario that protons escaping from the SNR in the past interact with surrounding dense gases at present.
