TeV gamma-ray observations of the binary neutron star merger GW170817 with H.E.S.S

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, H. Abdalla +250

We search for high-energy gamma-ray emission from the binary neutron star merger GW170817 with the H.E.S.S. Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes. The observations presented here have b…

Cloud ablation by a relativistic jet and the extended flare in CTA 102 in 2016 and 2017

M. Zacharias, M. Böttcher, F. Jankowsky +3

In late 2016 and early 2017 the flat spectrum radio quasar CTA 102 exhibited a very strong and long-lasting outburst. The event can be described by a roughly 2 months long increase…

Hard X-ray Quiescent Emission in Magnetars via Resonant Compton Upscattering

M. G. Baring, Z. Wadiasingh, P. L. Gonthier +1

Non-thermal quiescent X-ray emission extending between 10 keV and around 150 keV has been seen in about 10 magnetars by RXTE, INTEGRAL, Suzaku, NuSTAR and Fermi-GBM. For inner magn…

Identifying the brightest Galactic globular clusters for future observations by H.E.S.S. and CTA

Hambeleleni Ndiyavala, Petrus Paulus Kruger, Christo Venter

We present results from an emission code that assumes millisecond pulsars (MSPs) to be sources of relativistic particles in globular clusters (GCs) and models the resulting spectra…

The orbit of the gamma-ray binary 1FGL J1018.6-5856

Itumeleng Monageng, Vanessa McBride, Lee Townsend +3

Gamma-ray binaries are a small subclass of the high mass X-ray binary population which exhibit emission across the whole electromagnetic spectrum. We present radial velocities of 1…

Measurement of the EBL spectral energy distribution using the VHE gamma-ray spectra of H.E.S.S. blazars

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, H. Abdalla +256

Very high-energy gamma-rays (VHE, E>100 GeV) propagating over cosmological distances can interact with the low-energy photons of the extragalactic background light (EBL) and produc…
