A very-high-energy component deep in the Gamma-ray Burst afterglow

H. Abdalla R. Adam F. Aharonian F. Ait Benkhali E. O. Anguener M. Arakawa, C. Arcaro, C. Armand +219

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are brief flashes of gamma rays, considered to be the most energetic explosive phenomena in the Universe. The emission from GRBs comprises a short (typicall…

Particle Acceleration in Shearing Flows: Efficiencies and Limits

Frank M. Rieger, Peter Duffy

We examine limits to the efficiency for particles acceleration in shearing flows, showing that relativistic flow speeds are required for efficient gradual shear acceleration. We es…

UHE Cosmic Rays and AGN Jets

Frank M. Rieger

Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) and their relativistic jets are believed to be potential sites of ultra-high-energy (UHE) cosmic ray acceleration. This paper reviews basic observation…

An Introduction to Particle Acceleration in Shearing Flows

Frank M. Rieger

Shear flows are ubiquitously present in space and astrophysical plasmas. This paper highlights the central idea of the non-thermal acceleration of charged particles in shearing flo…

Combined Dark Matter searches towards dwarf spheroidal galaxies with Fermi-LAT, HAWC, HESS, MAGIC and VERITAS

Louise Oakes, Celine Armand, Eric Charles +13

The search for Dark Matter (DM) has great potential to reveal physics beyond the Standard Model. As such, searches for evidence of DM particles are being carried out using a wide r…

Constraints on the emission region of 3C 279 during strong flares in 2014 and 2015 through VHE gamma-ray observations with H.E.S.S

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, H. Abdalla, R. Adam +224

The flat spectrum radio quasar 3C 279 is known to exhibit pronounced variability in the high-energy (MeVGeV) -ray band, which is continuously monitored with Fer…
