Colliding wind binaries and gamma-ray binaries : relativistic version of the RAMSES code
Astrid Lamberts, Guillaume Dubus, Sebastien Fromang +1
Gamma-ray binaries are colliding wind binaries (CWB) composed of a massive star a non-accreting pulsar with a highly relativistic wind. Particle acceleration at the shocks results…
Measurement of the extragalactic background light imprint on the spectra of the brightest blazars observed with H.E.S.S

The previously unidentified very high-energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) γ-ray source HESS J1303-631, discovered in 2004, is re-examined including new data from the H.E.S.S. Cherenkov teles…
The magnetorotational instability as a jet launching mechanism
Geoffroy Lesur, Jonathan Ferreira, Gordon Ogilvie
Magnetorotational turbulence and magnetically driven disc winds are often considered as separate processes. However, realistic astrophysical discs are expected to be subject to bot…

Vela X is a region of extended radio emission in the western part of the Vela constellation: one of the nearest pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe), and associated with the energetic Vela p…
Local outflows from turbulent accretion disks
Sebastien Fromang, Henrik N. Latter, Geoffroy Lesur +1
The aim of this paper is to investigate the properties of accretion disks threaded by a weak vertical magnetic field, with a particular focus on the interplay between MHD turbulenc…
Discovery of gamma-ray emission from the extragalactic pulsar wind nebula N157B with the High Energy Stereoscopic System
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +195
We present the significant detection of the first extragalactic pulsar wind nebula (PWN) detected in gamma rays, N157B, located in the large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Pulsars with hi…
Particle acceleration and non-thermal emission during the V407 Cygni nova outburst
Pierrick Martin, Guillaume Dubus
On March 2010, the symbiotic binary V407 Cyg erupted as a result of a nova explosion. The event gave rise to a two-week long burst of >100MeV gamma-rays detected by Fermi/LAT, a un…
Surveys with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
G. Dubus, J. L. Contreras, S. Funk +9
Surveys open up unbiased discovery space and generate legacy datasets of long-lasting value. One of the goals of imaging arrays of Cherenkov telescopes like CTA is to survey areas…
Pulsed high energy gamma-rays from thermal populations in the current sheets of pulsar winds
Ioanna Arka, Guillaume Dubus
Context. More than one hundred GeV pulsars have been detected up to now by the LAT telescope on the Fermi gamma-ray observatory, showing peak energies around a few GeV. Current mod…
The initial conditions of star formation: cosmic rays as the fundamental regulators
Padelis P. Papadopoulos, Wing-Fai Thi
Cosmic rays (CRs) control the thermal, ionization and chemical state of the dense H_2 gas regions that otherwise remain shielded from far-UV and optical stellar radiation propagati…
Multiwavelength campaign on Mrk 509: Reverberation of the Fe Kalpha line
G. Ponti, M. Cappi, E. Costantini +17
We report on a detailed study of the Fe K emission/absorption complex in the nearby, bright Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 509. The study is part of an extensive XMM-Newton monitoring consis…
Revisiting a fundamental test of the disc instability model for X-ray binaries
M. Coriat, R. P. Fender, G. Dubus
We revisit a core prediction of the disc instability model (DIM) applied to X-ray binaries. The model predicts the existence of a critical mass transfer rate, which depends on disc…
