In order to investigate their $\\gamma$-ray radiation properties, we analyze the $\\sim$14-yr Fermi/LAT observation data of the three CSOs. They all show the low luminosity ($10^{41}-10^{43}$ erg s$^{-1}$) and no significant variability in the $\\gamma$-ray band. Their $\\gamma$-ray average spectra can be well fitted by a power-law function. These properties of $\\gamma$-rays are clearly different from the $\\gamma$-ray emitting CSOs CTD 135 and PKS 1413+135, for which the $\\gamma$-rays are produced by a restarted aligned jet. In the $L_{\\gamma}-\\Gamma_{\\gamma}$ plane, the three CSOs are also located at the region occupied by radio galaxies (RGs) while CTD 135 and PKS 1413+135 display the similar feature to blazars. Together with the similar radio emission property to $\\gamma$-ray emitting RGs Cen A and Fornax A, we speculate that the $\\gamma$-rays of the three CSOs stem from their extended mini-lobes. The broadband spectral energy distributions of the three CSOs can be well explained by the two-zone leptonic model, where their $\\gamma$-rays are produced by the inverse Compton process of the relativistic electrons in extended region. By extrapolating the observed Fermi/LAT spectra to the very high energy band, we find that TXS 0128+554 among the three CSOs may be detected by the Cherenkov Telescope Array in future.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-01-07T13:12:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "lobe-dominated gamma-ray emission", "broadband spectral energy distributions", "similar radio emission property", "ray emitting compact symmetric objects", "inverse compton process" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 19, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
