Its generally believed that young and rapidly rotating pulsars are important sites of particles acceleration, in which protons can be accelerated to relativistic energy above the polar cap region if the magnetic moment is antiparallel to the spin axis($vec{mu}cdotvec{Omega}<0$). To obtain the galactic diffusive neutrinos and gamma-rays for TeV, firstly,we use Monte Carlo(MC) method to generate a sample of young pulsars with ages less than $10^6$ yrs in our galaxy ; secondly, the neutrinos and high-energy gamma-rays can be produced through photomeson process with the interaction of energetic protons and soft X-ray photons ($p+gammarightarrow Delta^+rightarrow n+pi^+/p+pi^0$) for single pulsar, and these X-ray photons come from the neutron star surface. The results suggest that the diffusive TeV flux of neutrinos are lower than background flux, which indicated it is difficult to be detected by the current neutrino telescopes.

Recent studies suggest that pulsars could be strong sources of TeV muon neutrinos provided positive ions are accelerated by pulsar polar caps to PeV energies. In such a situation muon neutrinos are produced through the delta resonance in interactions
of pulsar accelerated ions with its thermal radiation field. High energy gamma rays also should be produced simultaneously in pulsar environment as both charged and neutral pions are generated in the interactions of energetic hadrons with the ambient photon fields. Here we estimate TeV gamma ray flux at Earth from few nearby young pulsars. When compared with the observations we find that proper consideration of the effect of polar cap geometry in flux calculation is important. Incorporating such an effect we obtain the (revised) event rates at Earth due to few potential nearby pulsars. The results suggest that pulsars are unlikely to be detected by the upcoming neutrino telescopes. We also estimate TeV gamma ray and neutrino fluxes from pulsar nebulae for the adopted model of particle acceleration.
The detection of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos and ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) provides a new way to explore sources of cosmic rays. One of the highest energy neutrino events detected by IceCube, tagged as IC35, is close to the UHECR
anisotropy region detected by Pierre Auger Observatory. The nearby starburst galaxy (SBG), NGC 4945, is close to this anisotropic region and inside the mean angular error of the IC35 event. Considering the hypernovae contribution located in the SB region of NGC 4945, which can accelerate protons up to $sim 10^{17} , {rm eV}$ and inject them into the interstellar medium, we investigate the origin of this event around this starburst galaxy. We show that the interaction of these protons with the SB regions gas density could explain Fermi-LAT gamma-ray and radio observations if the magnetic fields strength in the SB region is the order of $sim rm mG$. Our estimated PeV neutrino events, in ten years, for this source is approximately 0.01 ($4times10^{-4}$) if a proton spectral index of 2.4 (2.7) is considered, which would demonstrate that IC35 is not produced in the central region of this SBG. Additionally, we consider the superwind region of NGC 4945 and show that protons can hardly be accelerated in it up to UHEs.
Millisecond Pulsars are second most abundant source population discovered by the Fermi-LAT. They might contribute non-negligibly to the diffuse emission measured at high latitudes by Fermi-LAT, the IDGRB. Gamma-ray sources also contribute to the anis
otropy of the IDGRB measured on small scales by Fermi-LAT. We aim to assess the contribution of the unresolved counterpart of the detected MSPs population to the IDGRB and the maximal fraction of the measured anisotropy produced by this source class. We model the MSPs spatial distribution in the Galaxy and the gamma-ray emission parameters by considering radio and gamma-ray observational constraints. By simulating a large number of MSPs populations, we compute the average diffuse emission and the anisotropy 1-sigma upper limit. The emission from unresolved MSPs at 2 GeV, where the peak of the spectrum is located, is at most 0.9% of the measured IDGRB above 10 degrees in latitude. The 1-sigma upper limit on the angular power for unresolved MSP sources turns out to be about a factor of 60 smaller than Fermi-LAT measurements above 30 degrees. Our results indicate that this galactic source class represents a negligible contributor to the high-latitude gamma-ray sky and confirm that most of the intensity and geometrical properties of the measured diffuse emission are imputable to other extragalactic source classes. Nevertheless, given the MSP distribution, we expect them to contribute significantly to the gamma-ray diffuse emission at low latitudes. Since, along the galactic disk, the population of young Pulsars overcomes in number the one of MSPs, we compute the gamma-ray emission from the whole population of unresolved Pulsars in two low-latitude regions: the inner Galaxy and the galactic center.
TeV Halos, extended regions of TeV gamma-ray emission around middle-aged pulsars, have recently been established as a new source class in gamma-ray astronomy. These halos have been attributed to relativistic electrons and positrons that have left the
acceleration region close to the pulsar and are diffusing in the surrounding medium. Measuring the morphology of TeV Halos enables for the first time a direct measurement of the electron diffusion on scales of tens of parsecs. There are hints that the presence of relativistic particles affects the diffusion rate in the pulsars surroundings. Understanding electron diffusion is necessary to constrain the origins of the apparent `excess of cosmic-ray positrons at tens of GeV. TeV Halos can also be used to find mis-aligned pulsars, as well as study certain properties of the Galaxys pulsar population. Future VHE gamma-ray instruments will detect more of those TeV Halos and determine how much pulsars contribute to the observed cosmic-ray electron and positron fluxes, and how they affect diffusion in their environments.
It has been shown that the gamma-ray flux observed by HESS from the J1745-290 Galactic Center source is well fitted as the secondary gamma-rays photons generated from Dark Matter annihilating into Standard Model particles in combination with a simple
power law background. The neutrino flux expected from such Dark Matter source has been also analyzed. The main results of such analyses for 50 TeV Dark Matter annihilating into W+W- gauge boson and preliminary results for antiprotons are presented.
