PKS 2005-489 at VHE: Four Years of Monitoring with HESS and Simultaneous Multi-wavelength Observations

The HESS Collaboration, F. Acero

VHE observations of PKS 2005-489 were made with HESS from 2004 through 2007, together with three simultaneous multi-wavelength campaigns performed with XMM-Newton and RXTE in 2004…

Simulation of relativistic shocks and associated radiation

K. -I. Nishikawa, J. Niemiec, M. Medvedev +9

Using our new 3-D relativistic electromagnetic particle (REMP) code parallelized with MPI, we investigated long-term particle acceleration associated with a relativistic electron-p…

Aperiodic magnetic turbulence produced by relativistic ion beams

Jacek Niemiec, Martin Pohl, Antoine Bret +1

Magnetic-field generation by a relativistic ion beam propagating through an electron-ion plasma along a homogeneous magnetic field is investigated with 2.5D high-resolution particl…

Localising the VHE gamma-ray source at the Galactic Centre

The HESS Collaboration, F. Acero

The inner 10 pc of our galaxy contains many counterpart candidates of the very high energy (VHE; > 100 GeV) gamma-ray point source HESS J1745-290. Within the point spread function…

Kinetic simulations of turbulent magnetic-field growth by streaming cosmic rays

Thomas Stroman, Martin Pohl, Jacek Niemiec

Efficient acceleration of cosmic rays (via the mechanism of diffusive shock acceleration) requires turbulent, amplified magnetic fields in the shock's upstream region. We present r…

Radio Imaging of the Very-High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emission Region in the Central Engine of a Radio Galaxy

The VERITAS Collaboration, the VLBA 43 GHz M 87 Monitoring Team, the H. E. S. S. Collaboration +1

The accretion of matter onto a massive black hole is believed to feed the relativistic plasma jets found in many active galactic nuclei (AGN). Although some AGN accelerate particle…
