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 ...
The 2010 very high energy γ-ray flare and 10 years of multi-wavelength observations of M 87
(IOP Publishing, 2012)
The giant radio galaxy M 87 with its proximity (16 Mpc), famous jet, and very massive black hole ((3 – 6) × 109 M☉) provides a unique opportunity to investigate the origin of very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) γ-ray ...
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 ...
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. ...
