Decomposing blazar spectra into lepto‐hadronic emission components
(Wiley, 2018)
The recently reported coincidences between high‐energy neutrino events and major blazar outbursts reinforce the relevance of lepto‐hadronic emission models for blazars. We study the influence of physical parameters on the ...
Energy loss in intergalactic pair beams: particle-in-cell simulation
(EDP Sciences, 2016)
Aims. The change in the distribution function of electron-positron pair beams determines whether GeV photons can be produced as
secondary radiation from TeV photons. We will discuss the instabilities driven by pair ...
Monitoring of the radio galaxy M 87 at Very High Energy with MAGIC during a low emission state between 2012 and 2015
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2017)
We present the preliminary results from observing the nearby radio galaxy M 87 for 156 hours (between the years 2012 and 2015) with the MAGIC telescopes, which lead to a significant very high energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) ...
The 2012 flare of PG 1553+113 seen with H.E.S.S. and Fermi-LAT
(IOP Publishing, 2015)
Very high energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) γ-ray flaring activity of the high-frequency peaked BL Lac object PG 1553+113 has been detected by the H.E.S.S. telescopes. The flux of the source increased by a factor of 3 during the ...
Characterizing the γ-ray long-term variability of PKS 2155-304 with H.E.S.S. and Fermi-LAT
(EDP Sciences, 2017)
Studying the temporal variability of BL Lac objects at the highest energies provides unique insights into the extreme physical processes occurring in relativistic jets and in the vicinity of super-massive black holes. To ...
Gamma-ray blazar spectra with H.E.S.S. II mono analysis: the case of PKS 2155-304 and PG 1553+113
(EDP Sciences, 2017)
Context. The addition of a 28 m Cherenkov telescope (CT5) to the H.E.S.S. array extended the experiment’s sensitivityto lower energies. The lowest energy threshold is obtained using monoscopic analysis of data taken with ...
H.E.S.S. discovery of very high energy γ-ray emission from PKS 0625−354
(Oxford Univ Press, 2018)
PKS 0625−354 (z = 0.055) was observed with the four High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) telescopes in 2012 during 5.5 h. The source was detected above an energy threshold of 200 GeV at a significance level of 6.1σ. ...
Monitoring of the radio galaxy M 87 during a low-emission state from 2012 to 2015 with MAGIC
(Oxford Univ Press, 2020)
M 87 is one of the closest (z = 0.004 36) extragalactic sources emitting at very high energies (VHE, E > 100 GeV). The aim of this work is to locate the region of the VHE gamma-ray emission and to describe the observed ...
