X-ray follow-up observations of unidentified VHE gamma-ray sources
Gerd Pühlhofer
A large fraction of the recently discovered Galactic Very High Energy (VHE) source population remains unidentified to date. VHE gamma-ray emission traces high energy particles in t…
GRB observations with HESS
P. H. Tam, S. J. Wagner, G. Pühlhofer +1
H.E.S.S. (High Energy Stereoscopic System), which is designed to detect TeV gamma-rays, is a system of four Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes situated in Namibia. The system…
Using X-ray observations to identify the particle acceleration mechanisms in VHE SNRs and "dark" VHE sources
G. Pühlhofer
Very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray observations have proven to be very successful in localizing Galactic acceleration sites of VHE particles. Observations of shell-type supernova rem…
Simultaneous H.E.S.S. and Chandra observations of Sgr A* during an X-ray flare
Jim Hinton, Matthieu Vivier, Rolf Bühler +2
The rapidly varying non-thermal X-ray emission observed from Sgr A* points to particle acceleration taking place close to the supermassive black hole. The TeV gamma-ray source HESS…
Theory of cosmic ray and -ray production in the supernova remnant RX J0852.0-4622 (Vela Jr.)
E. G. Berezhko, G. Pühlhofer, H. J. Völk
Explicitly time-dependent, nonlinear kinetic theory of cosmic ray (CR) acceleration in supernova remnants (SNRs) has been used to investigate the properties of the very large SNR R…
