A recent study by researchers from the U.S. and Mexico using data from the HAWC Observatory has confirmed that TeV halos are a universal feature of middle-aged pulsars. These extended regions of gamma-ray emission are significantly larger than pulsar wind nebulae and may help identify otherwise undetectable pulsars. The findings challenge existing models of particle propagation in the Milky Way and open new paths for astronomical research. Detailed studies of individual TeV halos are planned to further explore how high-energy particles behave around these cosmic objects.
