Discovery of VHE gamma-rays from the BL Lac object PKS 0548-322

H. E. S. S. collaboration, :, F. Aharonian +168

PKS 0548-322 (z=0.069) is a ``high-frequency-peaked'' BL Lac object and a candidate very high energy (VHE, E>100 GeV) gamma-ray emitter, due to its high X-ray and radio flux. Obser…

First detection of VHE gamma-rays from SN 1006 by H.E.S.S

HESS Collaboration, F. Acero, F. Aharonian +175

Recent theoretical predictions of the lowest very high energy (VHE) luminosity of SN 1006 are only a factor 5 below the previously published H.E.S.S. upper limit, thus motivating f…
