Ridnaia A.V., Frederiks D.D., Svinkin D.S., Lysenko A.L., Tsvetkova A.E., Ulanov M.V. «Search for gamma-ray counterparts to FRBs in Konus-Wind data» Научно-технические ведомости Санкт-Петербургского государственного политехнического университета. Физико-математические науки, 16, № S1.2, с. 474-479 (2023)

We report preliminary results of the search in the Konus-Wind experiment data for hard X-ray/soft γ-ray emission in coincidence with publicly reported fast radio bursts (FRBs). We find no significant associations for any of the 581 FRBs in our sample and report upper limits to the high-energy fluence/peak flux for three spectral shapes, which generally describe short GRB, long GRB and magnetar giant flare spectra. In addition to study each individual FRB, we perform a stacking analysis of the bursts from each repeating source in our sample and a separate stacking analysis of the bursts from the non-repeating FRBs. We find no statistically significant excess of the cumulative emission over background level for either case.

Физико-математические науки, 16, № S1.2, с. 389-394 (2023)

The Tunka-Grande scintillation array is a part of a single TAIGA experimental complex located in the Tunka Valley, 50 km from the Lake Baikal. It consists of 19 observation stations deployed on an area of about 0.5 km². The main aim of the Tunka-Grande facility is a detailed study of the energy spectrum and mass composition of cosmic rays in the energy range from 10 PeV to 1 EeV by detecting the charged and muon component of EAS. The article presents a method for reconstructing the parameters of the EAS and primary cosmic rays, the cosmic rays energy spectrum based on 4 measurement seasons, and compares the results obtained with the data of the Tunka-133 and TAIGA-HiSCORE Cherenkov arrays.

The Tunka-Grande array is a part of unified experimental complex, which also includes Tunka-133 and TAIGA-HiSCORE (High Sensitivity COsmic Rays and gamma Explorer) wide-angle Cherenkov arrays, TAIGA-IACT array (Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope) and TAIGA-Muon scintillation array. This complex is located in the Tunka Valley (Buryatia Republic, Russia), 50 km from Lake Baikal. It is designed to study the energy spectrum and the mass composition of charged cosmic rays in the energy range 100 TeV-1000 PeV, to search for diffuse gamma rays above 100 TeV and to study local sources of gamma rays with energies above 30 TeV. This report outlines 3 key points. The first is the description of the Tunka-Grande scintillation array. The second one presents the strategy of the search for diffuse gamma rays based on a computer simulation of the Tunka-Grande array. The third one is devoted to the prospects for future research in the field of gamma-ray astronomy using simulation results.

Uvarov Yu.A., Bykov A.M. «Asymmetry study of the mixed-morphology supernova remnant G 18.95-1.1» Научно-технические ведомости Санкт-Петербургского государственного политехнического университета. Физико-математические науки, 16, № S1.2, с. 362-369 (2023)

Radio and X-ray maps of supernova remnants (SNRs) in many cases revealed an asymmetric global structure. This may reflect the inhomogeneity of the circumstellar/ambient matter, anisotropic energy release or both. Given a growing sample of the observed SNRs some techniques to characterize the global asymmetry are needed to identify old SNRs in sky surveys among other observed extended structures of low surface brightness. We discuss here the applications of modified power-ratio technique to quantify the global asymmetry of the mixed-morphology SNR G 18.95-1.1 using its recent mapping with SRG and compare results with the well-studied SNRs IC 443 and Cas A.
