Constraints on the emission geometries and spin evolution of gamma-ray millisecond pulsars
(IOP Publishing, 2014)
Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are a growing class of gamma-ray emitters. Pulsed gamma-ray signals have been
detected from more than 40 MSPs with the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). The wider radio beams and more
compact ...
Long-term TeV and X-ray observations of the gamma-ray binary HESS J0632+057
(IOP Publishing, 2014)
HESS J0632+057 is the only gamma-ray binary known so far whose position in the sky allows observations
with ground-based observatories in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Here we report on long-term
observations ...
Deeper H.E.S.S. observations of Vela Junior (RX J0852.0-4622): morphology studies and resolved spectroscopy
(EDP Sciences, 2018)
Aims. We study γ-ray emission from the shell-type supernova remnant (SNR) RX J0852.0−4622 to better characterize its spectral properties and its distribution over the SNR.
Methods. The analysis of an extended High Energy ...
Primary particle acceleration above 100 TeV in the shell-type supernova remnant RX J1713.7-3946 with deep H.E.S.S. observations (Corrigendum to article: Primary particle acceleration above 100 TeV in the shell-type supernova remnant RX J1713.7-3946 with deep HESS observations, 464(1):235-243.)

Primary particle acceleration above 100 TeV in the shell-type supernova remnant RX J1713.7-3946 with deep H.E.S.S. observations (Corrigendum)
Modeling phase-aligned gamma-ray and radio millisecond pulsar light curves
(IOP Publishing, 2012)
Since the discovery of the first eight gamma-ray millisecond pulsars (MSPs) by the Fermi Large Area Telescope, this population has been steadily expanding. Four of the more recent detections, PSR J0034–0534, PSR J1939+2134 ...
H.E.S.S. observations of RX J1713.7−3946 with improved angular and spectral resolution: evidence for gamma-ray emission extending beyond the X-ray emitting shell
(EDP Sciences, 2018)
Supernova remnants exhibit shock fronts (shells) that can accelerate charged particles up to very high energies. In the past decade, measurements of
a handful of shell-type supernova remnants in very high-energy gamma ...
Cosmic-ray acceleration and escape from post-adiabatic supernova remnants
(EDP Sciences, 2020)
Context. Supernova remnants are known to accelerate cosmic rays on account of their nonthermal emission of radio waves, X-rays,
and gamma rays. Although there are many models for the acceleration of cosmic rays in supernova ...
Acceleration of solar wind particles by traveling interplanetary shocks
(IOP Publishing, 2019)
The acceleration of thermal solar wind (SW) protons at spherical interplanetary shocks driven by coronal mass ejections is investigated. The SW velocity distribution is represented using κ-functions, which are transformed ...
H.E.S.S. and Suzaku observations of the Vela X pulsar wind nebula
(EDP Sciences, 2019)
Context. Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) represent the most prominent population of Galactic very-high-energy gamma-ray sources and are thought to be an efficient source of leptonic cosmic rays. Vela X is a nearby middle-aged ...
Current sheets, magnetic islands, and associated particle acceleration in the solar wind as observed by Ulysses near the ecliptic plane
(IOP Publishing, 2019)
Recent studies of particle acceleration in the heliosphere have revealed a new mechanism that can locally energize particles up to several MeV nucleon–1. Stream–stream interactions, as well as the heliospheric current sheet ...
