Cherenkov Telescope Array sensitivity to the putative millisecond pulsar population responsible for the Galactic center excess

no code implementations10 Feb 2021 Oscar Macias, Harm van Leijen, Deheng Song, Shin'ichiro Ando, Shunsaku Horiuchi, Roland M. Crocker

We forecast that, in the event that $e^\pm$ injection spectra are harder than $E^{-2}$, CTA has the potential to robustly discover the IC signature of a putative Galactic bulge MSP population sufficient to explain the GCE for $e^\pm$ injection efficiencies in the range $\approx 2. 9-74. 1\%$, or higher, depending on the level of mismodeling of the Galactic diffuse emission components.
