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…

Primary particle acceleration above 100 TeV in the shell-type Supernova Remnant RX J1713.7-3946 with deep H.E.S.S. observations

The HESS Collaboration, F. Aharonian

We present deep H.E.S.S. observations of the supernova remnant (SNR) RX J1713.7-3946. Combining data of three years - from 2003 to 2005 - we obtain significantly increased statisti…

Background Modelling in Very-High-Energy gamma-ray Astronomy

D. Berge, S. Funk, J. Hinton

Ground based Cherenkov telescope systems measure astrophysical gamma-ray emission against a background of cosmic-ray induced air showers. The subtraction of this background is a ma…

H.E.S.S. observations of the Galactic Center region and their possible dark matter interpretation

H. E. S. S. collaboration, :, F. A. Aharonian

The detection of gamma-rays from the source HESS J1745-290 in the Galactic Center (GC) region with the H.E.S.S. array of Cherenkov telescopes in 2004 is presented. After subtractio…

The H.E.S.S. View of the Central 200 Parsecs

Jim Hinton

The inner few hundred parsecs of our galaxy provide a laboratory for the study of the production and propagation of energetic particles. Very-high-energy gamma-rays provide an effe…

Inverse Compton Scenarios for the TeV Gamma-Ray Emission of the Galactic Centre

J. A. Hinton, F. A. Aharonian

The intense Compton cooling of ultra-relativistic electrons in the Klein-Nishina regime in radiation dominated environments, such as that found in the Galactic Centre, may result i…
