Gamma-ray Astronomy
Jim Hinton
The relevance of gamma-ray astronomy to the search for the origin of the galactic and, to a lesser extent, the ultra-high-energy cosmic rays has long been recognised. The current r…
VHE gamma-rays from Westerlund 2 and implications for the inferred energetics
O. Reimer, F. Aharonian, J. Hinton +4
The H.E.S.S. collaboration recently reported the discovery of VHE gamma-ray emission coincident with the young stellar cluster Westerlund 2. This system is known to host a populati…
Simultaneous H.E.S.S. and Chandra observations of Sgr A* during an X-ray flare
Jim Hinton, Matthieu Vivier, Rolf Bühler +2
The rapidly varying non-thermal X-ray emission observed from Sgr A* points to particle acceleration taking place close to the supermassive black hole. The TeV gamma-ray source HESS…
Localising the H.E.S.S. Galactic Centre point source
C. van Eldik, O. Bolz, I. Braun +3
Observations by the H.E.S.S. system of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes provide the most sensitive measurements of the Galactic Centre region in the energy range 150 GeV -…
Gamma-ray emission associated with the Cluster-scale AGN Outbursts in the Hydra A system
W. Domainko, J. A. Hinton, E. C. D. Pope
Recent observations have revealed the existence of an enormously energetic > 10^61 erg AGN outburst in the Hydra A cluster of galaxies. This outburst has produced cavities in the i…
Fast variability of TeV gamma-rays from the radio galaxy M 87
HESS Collaboration, F. A. Aharonian
The detection of fast variations of the TeV (10^12 eV) gamma-ray flux, on time-scales of days, from the nearby radio galaxy M 87 is reported. These variations are ~10 times faster…
