H.E.S.S. constraints on Dark Matter annihilations towards the Sculptor and Carina Dwarf Galaxies
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +192
The Sculptor and Carina Dwarf spheroidal galaxies were observed with the H.E.S.S. Cherenkov telescope array between January 2008 and December 2009. The data sets consist of a total…
An X-ray Study of Local Infrared Bright Galaxies
Miguel Pereira-Santaella, Almudena Alonso-Herrero, Elena Jiménez-Bailón +3
We are carrying out detailed study of the X-ray and infrared (IR) properties of a sample of local (d < 70 Mpc) luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) using XMM-Newton and Spitzer (imag…
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…
Searching for Compton-thick active galactic nuclei at z~0.1
Andy Goulding, David Alexander, James Mullaney +4
Using a suite of X-ray, mid-IR and optical active galactic nuclei (AGN) luminosity indicators, we search for Compton-thick (CT) AGNs with intrinsic L_X>10^42erg/s at z~0.03-0.2, a…
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…
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…
Discovery of an unusual new radio source in the star-forming galaxy M82: Faint supernova, supermassive blackhole, or an extra-galactic microquasar?
T. W. B. Muxlow, R. J. Beswick, S. T. Garrington +7
A faint new radio source has been detected in the nuclear region of the starburst galaxy M82 using MERLIN radio observations designed to monitor the flux density evolution of the r…
