VHE gamma-rays from Westerlund 2 and implications for the inferred energetics
O. Reimer, F. Aharonian, J. Hinton +4
The H.E.S.S. collaboration recently reported the discovery of VHE gamma-ray emission coincident with the young stellar cluster Westerlund 2. This system is known to host a populati…

Fast variability of TeV gamma-rays from the radio galaxy M 87
HESS Collaboration, F. A. Aharonian
The detection of fast variations of the TeV (10^12 eV) gamma-ray flux, on time-scales of days, from the nearby radio galaxy M 87 is reported. These variations are ~10 times faster…

Primary particle acceleration above 100 TeV in the shell-type Supernova Remnant RX J1713.7-3946 with deep H.E.S.S. observations
The HESS Collaboration, F. Aharonian
We present deep H.E.S.S. observations of the supernova remnant (SNR) RX J1713.7-3946. Combining data of three years - from 2003 to 2005 - we obtain significantly increased statisti…
