[gamma]-ray production via IC scattering of the infrared excess from the Be-type star in the binary system PSR B1259-63/SS2883

Abstract Un-pulsed γ-ray emission has been detected close to periastron in the pulsar/Be-star binary system PSR B1259-63/SS 2883, believed to originate from the shock front that forms between the stellar and pulsar winds. A likely source of γ-ray production is the inverse Compton up-scattering of ta...
