  31. What is the dark accelerators? •Old SNR? (Yamazaki et al. 2006) •Electrons lost their energy by synchrotron cooling. •Protons still keep energy due to small cooling rate. •There should be more unID objects. (SN rate .. ~1SN/100yr � ~100 unID objects?) •GRB remnants or hyper-nova remnants? (Atoyan et al. 2006) •GRB rate in our Galaxy may be consistent with the number of unID objects. •PWN? Not clarified! Still mystery! We need more information from radio to TeV gamma-rays 31/32

  32. Summary • Suzaku results: F(TeV)/F(X) is very large. – Suggesting proton accleration. • X-ray: synchrotron from electrons. • TeV : proton + proton � π 0 � TeV gamma-rays • Origin is still not clarified. – Old SNR? – GRB remnant? – PWN? – Other object? 32/32
