Constraints on an annihilation signal from a core of constant dark matter density around the Milky Way center with H.E.S.S.
(American Physical Society, 2015)
An annihilation signal of dark matter is searched for from the central region of the Milky Way. Data acquired in dedicated on-off observations of the Galactic center region with H.E.S.S. are analyzed for this purpose. No ...
Modeling the pulse profiles of millisecond pulsars in the second LAT catalog of γ-ray pulsars
(AIP, 2012)
Significant γ-ray pulsations have been detected from ∼40 millisecond pulsars (MSPs) using 3 years of sky-survey data from the Fermi LAT and radio timing solutions from across the globe. We have fit the radio and γ-ray pulse ...
H.E.S.S. discovery of VHE y-rays from the quasar PKS 1510-089
(EDP Sciences, 2013)
The quasar PKS 1510-089 (z = 0.361) was observed with the H.E.S.S. array of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes during high states in the optical and GeV bands, to search for very high energy (VHE, defined as E ≥ 0.1 ...
Constraints on the emission region of 3C 279 during strong flares in 2014 and 2015 through VHE γ-ray observations with H.E.S.S.
(EDP Sciences, 2019)
The flat spectrum radio quasar 3C 279 is known to exhibit pronounced variability in the high-energy (100 MeV < E < 100 GeV) γ-ray band, which is continuously monitored with Fermi-LAT. During two periods of high activity ...
Cosmic-ray positrons from millisecond pulsars
(IOP Publishing, 2015)
Observations by the Fermi Large Area Telescope of γ-ray millisecond pulsar (MSP) light curves imply copious pair
production in their magnetospheres, and not exclusively in those of younger pulsars. Such pair cascades may ...
H.E.S.S. reveals a lack of TeV emission from the supernova remnant Puppis A
(EDP Sciences, 2015)
Context: Puppis A is an interesting ~4 kyr-old supernova remnant (SNR) that shows strong evidence of interaction between the forward shock and a molecular cloud. It has been studied in detail from radio frequencies to ...
The first Fermi Large Area Telescope catalog of gamma-ray pulsars
(IOP Publishing, 2010)
The dramatic increase in the number of known gamma-ray pulsars since the launch of the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (formerly GLAST) offers the first opportunity to study a sizable population of these high-energy objects. ...
The Vela pulsar: results from the first year of Fermi LAT observations
(IOP Publishing, 2010)
We report on analysis of timing and spectroscopy of the Vela pulsar using 11 months of observations with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. The intrinsic brightness of Vela at GeV energies ...
Discovery of pulsed γ-rays from PSR J0034-0534 with the Fermi Large Area Telescope: a case for co-located radio and γ-ray emission regions
(IOP Publishing, 2010)
Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) have been firmly established as a class of γ-ray emitters via the detection of pulsations above 0.1 GeV from eight MSPs by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). Using 13 months of LAT data, ...
Discovery of variable VHE γ-ray emission from the binary system 1FGL J1018.6-5856
(EDP Sciences, 2015)
Re-observations with the HESS telescope array of the very high-energy (VHE) source HESS J1018–589 A that is coincident with the Fermi-LAT γ-ray binary 1FGL J1018.6–5856 have resulted in a source detection significance of ...
