Multiwavelength study of non-thermal emission in the Swift J1834.9-0846/W41 region

We investigate the origin of non-thermal emission from the Swift J1834-0846/W41 region by modeling its broadband spectral energy distribution from radio to TeV energies within leptonic and lepto-hadronic frameworks using Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling. Motivated by morphological studies of HESS J1834-087 suggesting a two-component TeV structure, we explore a single extended source scenario and a configuration comprising a central point-like component embedded within extended emission. Purely leptonic models are disfavored in both scenarios by unrealistically low magnetic field strengths, whereas lepto-hadronic solutions yield field intensities and non-thermal energy budgets consistent with an evolved supernova remnant undergoing efficient cosmic-ray acceleration. In the two-component scenario, hadronic interactions dominate the extended TeV emission from W41, while the central excess is well described by a leptonic magnetar wind nebula powered by Swift J1834-0846, implying a short initial spin period of P 0 0.2 s. Simulated observations with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory show that 30 h exposures will discriminate between the two morphological configurations and extend spectral measurements beyond about 10 TeV.
