Very-high-energy -ray emission from young massive star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud
F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali, J. Aschersleben +129
The Tarantula Nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud is known for its high star formation activity. At its center lies the young massive star cluster R136, providing a significant am…
The hunt of PeVatrons as the origin of the most energetic photons observed in our Galaxy
Emma de Oña Wilhelmi, Rubén López-Coto, Felix Aharonian +4
Ultrarelativistic particles called cosmic rays permeate the Milky Way, propagating through the Galactic turbulent magnetic fields. The mechanisms under which these particles increa…
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…
NIR spectral classification of the companion in the gamma-ray binary HESS J1832-093 as an O6 V star
Brian van Soelen, Pol Bordas, Ignacio Negueruela +3
HESS J1832-093 is a member of the rare class of gamma-ray binaries, as recently confirmed by the detection of orbitally modulated X-ray and gamma-ray emission with a period of ~86…
