Discovery of the hard spectrum VHE γ-ray source HESS J1641-463
(IOP Publishing, 2014)
This Letter reports the discovery of a remarkably hard spectrum source, HESS J1641–463, by the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) in the very high energy (VHE) domain. HESS J1641–463 remained unnoticed by the usual ...
Search for TeV Gamma-ray emission from GRB 100621A, an extremely bright GRB in X-rays, with H.E.S.S.
(EDP Sciences, 2014)
The long gamma-ray burst (GRB) 100621A, at the time the brightest X-ray transient ever detected by Swift-XRT in the 0:3–10 keV range, has
been observed with the H.E.S.S. imaging air Cherenkov telescope array, sensitive ...
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 ...
H.E.S.S. observations of the binary system PSR B1259-63/LS 2883 around the 2010/2011 periastron passage
(EDP Sciences, 2013)
Aims. We present very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) data from the γ-ray binary system PSR B1259-63/LS 2883 taken around its periastron passage on 15th of December 2010 with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) ...
Identification of HESS J1303-631 as a pulsar wind nebula through y-ray, x-ray, and radio observations
(EDP Science, 2012)
Aims. The previously unidentified very high-energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) γ-ray source HESS J1303−631, discovered in 2004, is re-examined including new data from the H.E.S.S. Cherenkov telescope array in order to identify this ...
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 ...
