Detection of Gamma Rays From a Starburst Galaxy

The HESS Collaboration, F. Acero

Starburst galaxies exhibit in their central regions a highly increased rate of supernovae, the remnants of which are thought to accelerate energetic cosmic rays up to energies of ~…

Simultaneous observations of PKS 2155-304 with H.E.S.S., Fermi, RXTE and ATOM: spectral energy distributions and variability in a low state

H. E. S. S., Fermi-LAT collaborations

We report on the first simultaneous observations that cover the optical, X-ray, and high energy gamma-ray bands of the BL Lac object PKS 2155-304. The gamma-ray bands were observed…

H.E.S.S. observations of gamma-ray bursts in 2003-2007

F. Aharonian

Very-high-energy (VHE; >~100 GeV) gamma-rays are expected from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) in some scenarios. Exploring this photon energy regime is necessary for understanding the ene…

Exploring a SNR/Molecular Cloud Association Within HESS J1745-303

HESS Collaboration, F. Aharonian

HESS J1745-303 is an extended, unidentified VHE (very high energy) gamma-ray source discovered using HESS in the Galactic Plane Survey. Since no obvious counterpart has previously…

Discovery of VHE gamma-rays from the high-frequency-peaked BL Lac object RGB J0152+017

HESS Collaboration, F. Aharonian

Aims: The BL Lac object RGB J0152+017 (z=0.080) was predicted to be a very high-energy (VHE; > 100 GeV) gamma-ray source, due to its high X-ray and radio fluxes. Our aim is to unde…

HESS VHE Gamma-Ray Sources Without Identified Counterparts

HESS Collaboration, F. Aharonian

The detection of gamma rays in the very-high-energy (VHE) energy range (100 GeV--100 TeV) provides a direct view of the parent population of ultra-relativistic particles found in a…
