Source Notes:

Details of the source detection:

From Cao et al. (2021):
- "At 100 TeV, the angular and energy resolutions are about 15–20 arcmin
and better than 20%, respectively, allowing adequate spectroscopic and
morphological studies."
- "The statistical significance of the detection above 100 TeV is calculated
using a 0.3deg extension template"
- "Crab Units (CU), flux of the Crab Nebula at 100 TeV; 1 CU = 6.1 x 10-17 photons TeV-1 cm-2 s-1)"
- Significance above 100 TeV: 10.5 sigma
- E_max (PeV): 1.42 +/- 0.13
- Differential photon flux at 100 TeV (CU): 0.54 +/- 0.10
- On-source events/Off-source events: 45/6.7
- Exposure (hr): 2648.2.

Source Position:

From Cao et al. (2021):
- R.A. (J2000): 308.05 = 20h 32m 12s
- Dec. (J2000): +41.05 = +41d 03m

Possible Origin:

From Cao et al. (2021):
- This list contains sources potentially at the origin of the LHAASO source, together with their class, their distance, age and luminosity

- ARGO J2031+4157
- MGRO J2031+41

Pevatron:

From Mitchell (2021):
- this source is included in a list of Galactic sources currently known
to produce gamma-ray emission above 100 TeV.
