Based on the calculated results, we elucidate the mechanism of the orderings of fine-structure energy levels of 2^ D3/2,5/2 and 2^P1/2,3/2 respectively, i.e. for 2^D3/2,5/2 orderings, the competition between the spin-orbit interactions and the Breit interactions; for 2^P1/2,3/2 orderings, the electron correlations, especially the electron correlations owing to the 2p^5 configuration interactions.展开更多
We present a possible hadronic explanation of the high-energy γ-ray emission from two very high-energy (VHE) sources, HESS 31745-303 (A ) and HESS 31714-385, which coincide with supernova remnants (SNRs) intera...We present a possible hadronic explanation of the high-energy γ-ray emission from two very high-energy (VHE) sources, HESS 31745-303 (A ) and HESS 31714-385, which coincide with supernova remnants (SNRs) interacting with dense molecular clouds (MCs). We calculate the proton spectra and the corresponding hadronic γ-ray spectra for different Mach numbers of the shock wave in a semi-analytical model for the non-linear shock acceleration process, then apply the model to the two newly discovered TeV sources. The results show that the γ-ray spectra for the two sources with energies above 100 MeV detected by HESS and EGRET can be reproduced with low Mach numbers about 2.5. Thus the high-energy γ-ray origin for each one of the two sources can be interpreted as proton-proton (p-p) collisions in MCs overtaken by an SNR shock wave.展开更多
