H.E.S.S. and Fermi-LAT observations of PSR B1259-63/LS 2883 during its 2014 and 2017 periastron passages

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, H. Abdalla, R. Adam +222

PSR B1259-63/LS 2883 is a gamma-ray binary system consisting of a pulsar in an eccentric orbit around a bright Oe stellar-type companion star that features a dense circumstellar di…

Search for dark matter annihilation signals from unidentified Fermi-LAT objects with H.E.S.S

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, H. Abdallah, F. Aharonian +226

Cosmological -body simulations show that Milky Way-sized galaxies harbor a population of unmerged dark matter subhalos. These subhalos could shine in gamma-rays and be eventuall…

An extreme particle accelerator in the Galactic plane: HESS J1826130

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, H. Abdalla, R. Adam +236

The unidentified very-high-energy (VHE; E 0.1 TeV) -ray source, HESS J1826130, was discovered with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (HESS) in the Galactic plane. The…

Search for dark matter annihilation signatures in H.E.S.S. observations of Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, A. Abramowski +229

Dwarf spheroidal galaxies of the Local Group are close satellites of the Milky Way characterized by a large mass-to-light ratio and are not expected to be the site of non-thermal h…

Constraints on the intergalactic magnetic field using Fermi-LAT and H.E.S.S. blazar observations

H. E. S. S., Fermi-LAT Collaborations, : +134

Magnetic fields in galaxies and galaxy clusters are believed to be the result of the amplification of intergalactic seed fields during the formation of large-scale structures in th…

Acceleration of petaelectronvolt protons in the Galactic Centre

H. E. S. S. collaboration, :, A. Abramowski +229

Galactic cosmic rays reach energies of at least a few Peta-electronvolts (1 PeV = electron volts). This implies our Galaxy contains PeV accelerators (PeVatrons), bu…
