Acceleration and transport of relativistic electrons in the jets of the microquasar SS 433
F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali, J. Aschersleben +161
SS 433 is a microquasar, a stellar binary system with collimated relativistic jets. We observed SS 433 in gamma rays using the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.), finding a…
The peculiar new state of the blazar PKS 1510-089
H. M. Schutte, M. Zacharias, M. Böttcher +4
Contemporaneous multiwavelength observations with H.E.S.S., SALT, Fermi-LAT, Swift, and ATOM show that the blazar PKS 1510-089 suffered a significant decrease in its optical flux,…
The vanishing of the primary emission region in PKS 1510-089
F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali, J. Aschersleben +152
In July 2021, PKS 1510-089 exhibited a significant flux drop in the high-energy gamma-ray (by a factor 10) and optical (by a factor 5) bands and remained in this low state througho…
Detection of extended gamma-ray emission around the Geminga pulsar with H.E.S.S
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian +165
Geminga is an enigmatic radio-quiet gamma-ray pulsar located at a mere 250 pc distance from Earth. Extended very-high-energy gamma-ray emission around the pulsar was discovered by…
Search for the evaporation of primordial black holes with H.E.S.S
H. E. S. S. collaboration, :, F. Aharonian +146
Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) are hypothetical black holes predicted to have been formed from density fluctuations in the early Universe. PBHs with an initial mass around $10^{14}-…
Gamma-ray observations of MAXI J1820+070 during the 2018 outburst
H. Abe, S. Abe, V. A. Acciari +439
MAXI J1820+070 is a low-mass X-ray binary with a black hole as a compact object. This binary underwent an exceptionally bright X-ray outburst from March to October 2018, showing ev…
Search for dark matter annihilation signals in the H.E.S.S. Inner Galaxy Survey
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, H. Abdalla, F. Aharonian +137
The central region of the Milky Way is one of the foremost locations to look for dark matter (DM) signatures. We report the first results on a search for DM particle annihilation s…
Time-resolved hadronic particle acceleration in the recurrent Nova RS Ophiuchi
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali +171
Recurrent Novae are repeating thermonuclear explosions in the outer layers of white dwarfs, due to the accretion of fresh material from a binary companion. The shock generated by e…
Observation of the gamma-ray binary HESS J0632+057 with the H.E.S.S., MAGIC, and VERITAS telescopes
C. B. Adams, W. Benbow, A. Brill +409
The results of gamma-ray observations of the binary system HESS J0632+057 collected during 450 hours over 15 years, between 2004 and 2019, are presented. Data taken with the atmosp…
Evidence of 100 TeV -ray emission from HESS J1702-420: A new PeVatron candidate
H. Abdalla, F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali +232
The identification of PeVatrons, hadronic particle accelerators reaching the knee of the cosmic ray spectrum (few eV), is crucial to understand the origin of cosmic rays…
