Potential for measuring the longitudinal and lateral profile of muons in TeV air showers with IACTs

A. M. W. Mitchell, H. P. Dembinski, R. D. Parsons

Muons are copiously produced within hadronic extensive air showers (EAS) occurring in the Earth's atmosphere, and are used by particle air shower detectors as a means of identifyin…

GRB Observations with H.E.S.S. II

C. Hoischen, A. Blazer, E. Bissaldi +12

The High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) has been searching for counterparts of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) for many years. In 2012 the system was upgraded with a fifth m di…

Observations of the Pulsar Wind Nebula HESS J1825-137 with H.E.S.S. II

A. M. W. Mitchell, S. Caroff, R. D. Parsons +3

We present a new and deep analysis of the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) HESS\,J1825--137 with a comprehensive data set of almost 400 hours taken with the H.E.S.S. array between 2004 and…

Advanced search for the extension of unresolved TeV sources with H.E.S.S.: First measurement of the extension of the Crab nebula at TeV energies

M. Holler, D. Berge, J. Hahn +2

The resolution power of current Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes is presently restricted to scales of a few arcminutes. In the very high-energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray…

The H.E.S.S. II GRB Program

R. D. Parsons, A. Balzer, M. Füssling +9

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are some of the most energetic and exotic events in the Universe, however their behaviour at the highest energies (>10 GeV) is largely unknown. Although the…

Sgr A* Observations with H.E.S.S. II

R. D. Parsons, M. Holler, J. King +5

The Galactic Centre has been studied with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) for over 10 years, revealing a bright, complex gamma-ray morphology. Besides a strong point…

A Generic Algorithm for IACT Optical Efficiency Calibration using Muons

A. M. W. Mitchell, V. Marandon, R. D. Parsons

Muons produced in Extensive Air Showers (EAS) generate ring-like images in Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes when travelling near parallel to the optical axis. From geometri…

Multiwavelength campaign on the HBL PKS 2155-304 : A new insight on its spectral energy distribution

D. A. Sanchez, B. Giebels, D. Zaborov +3

The blazar PKS~2155-304 was the target of a multiwavelength campaign from June to October 2013 which widely improves our knowledge of its spectral energy distribution. This campaig…

Long-term monitoring of PKS 2155304 with ATOM and H.E.S.S.: investigation of optical/-ray correlations in different spectral states

A. Abramowski, F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali +225

In this paper we report on the analysis of all the available optical and very high-energy -ray (200 GeV) data for the BL Lac object PKS 2155304, collected simultaneously w…

Status of the Monoscopic Analysis Chains for H.E.S.S. II

M. Holler, A. Balzer, Y. Becherini +4

H.E.S.S. is a system of Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACTs) measuring cosmic gamma-rays with very high energies in Namibia. Extending the array with a fifth telescope…
