Discovery of gamma-ray emission from the extragalactic pulsar wind nebula N 157B with H.E.S.S
(EDP Sciences, 2012)
We present the significant detection of the first extragalactic pulsar wind nebula (PWN) detected in gamma rays, N 157B, located in the large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Pulsars with high spin-down luminosity are found to power ...
HESS J1640-465: an exceptionally luminous TeV γ-ray supernova remnant
(Oxford Univ Press, 2014)
The results of follow-up observations of the TeV γ-ray source HESS J1640−465 from 2004 to 2011 with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (HESS) are reported in this work. The spectrum is well described by an exponential ...
TeV γ-ray observations of the young synchrotron-dominated SNRs G1.9+0.3 and G330.2+1.0 with H.E.S.S.
(Oxford Univ Press, 2014)
The nonthermal
nature of the Xray
emission from the shelltype
supernova remnants (SNRs)
G1.9+0.3 and G330.2+1.0 is an indication of intense particle acceleration in the shock fronts
of both objects. This suggests that ...
A new SNR with TeV shell-type morphology: HESS J1731-347
(EDP Sciences, 2011)
Aims. The recent discovery of the radio shell-type supernova remnant (SNR), G353.6-0.7, in spatial coincidence with the unidentified TeV source HESS J1731−347 has motivated further observations of the source with the High ...
Detailed spectral and morphological analysis of the shell type supernova remnant RCW 86
(EDP Sciences, 2018)
Aims. We aim for an understanding of the morphological and spectral properties of the supernova remnant RCW 86 and for insights into the
production mechanism leading to the RCW 86 very high-energy γ-ray emission.
Methods. ...
H.E.S.S. detection of TeV emission from the interaction region between the supernova remnant G349.7+0.2 and a molecular cloud
(EDP Sciences, 2015)
G349.7+0.2 is a young Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) located at the distance of 11.5 kpc and observed across the entire electromagnetic spectrum from radio to high energy (HE; 0.1 GeV <E< 100 GeV) γ-rays. Radio and ...
Probing the gamma-ray emission from HESS J1834-087 using H.E.S.S. and Fermi LAT observations
(EDP Sciences, 2015)
Aims: Previous observations with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) have revealed an extended very-high-energy (VHE; E> 100 GeV) γ-ray source, HESS J1834−087, coincident with the supernova remnant (SNR) W41. ...
