Discovery and follow-up studies of the extended, off-plane, VHE gamma-ray source HESS J1507-622
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, F. Acero, F. Aharonian +167
Context: The detection of gamma-rays in the very-high-energy (VHE) range (100 GeV-100 TeV) offers the possibility of studying the parent population of ultrarelativistic particles f…
Revisiting the Westerlund 2 Field with the H.E.S.S. Telescope Array
The HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +194
Aims. Previous observations with the H.E.S.S. telescope array revealed the existence of extended very-high-energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) γ-ray emission, HESS J1023-575, coincident with t…
Design Concepts for the Cherenkov Telescope Array
The CTA Consortium
Ground-based gamma-ray astronomy has had a major breakthrough with the impressive results obtained using systems of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. Ground-based gamma-ray…
Discovery of VHE gamma-rays from the BL Lac object PKS 0548-322
H. E. S. S. collaboration, :, F. Aharonian +168
PKS 0548-322 (z=0.069) is a ``high-frequency-peaked'' BL Lac object and a candidate very high energy (VHE, E>100 GeV) gamma-ray emitter, due to its high X-ray and radio flux. Obser…
Results from H.E.S.S. Observations of Relativistic Sources
U. Barres de Almeida
The High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) is a southern hemisphere array of four Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes observing the sky in the very high energy gamma-ray r…
Particle Acceleration and Magnetic Field Structure in PKS 2155-304: Optical Polarimetric Observations
U. Barres de Almeida, M. J. Ward, T. P. Dominici +5
In this paper we present multiband optical polarimetric observations of the VHE blazar PKS 2155-304 made simultaneously with a H.E.S.S./Fermi high-energy campaign in 2008, when the…
VHE gamma-ray emission of PKS 2155-304: spectral and temporal variability
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +185
Observations of very high energy gamma-rays from blazars provide information about acceleration mechanisms occurring in their innermost regions. Studies of variability in these obj…
Multi-wavelength Observations of H 2356-309
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +184
AIMS: The properties of the broad-band emission from the high-frequency peaked BL Lac H 2356-309 (z=0.165) are investigated. METHODS: Very High Energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) observatio…
