CANGAROO-III Search for Gamma Rays from Kepler's Supernova Remnant
R. Enomoto, Y. Higashi, T. Yoshida +1
Kepler's supernova, discovered in October 1604, produced a remnant that has been well studied observationally in the radio, infrared, optical, and X-ray bands, and theoretically. S…
Observation of Very High Energy Gamma Rays from HESS J1804-216 with CANGAROO-III Telescopes
Y. Higashi, H. Kubo, T. Yoshida +4
We observed the unidentified TeV gamma-ray source HESS J1804-216 with the CANGAROO-III atmospheric Cerenkov telescopes from May to July in 2006. We detected very high energy gamma…
Observation of an extended VHE gamma-ray emission from MSH 15-52 with CANGAROO-III
T. Nakamori, H. kubo, T. Yoshida +2
We have observed the supernova remnant MSH 15-52 (G320.4-1.2), which contains the gamma-ray pulsar PSR B1509-58, using the CANGAROO-III imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope arra…
CANGAROO-III Observations of the 2006 Outburst of PKS2155-304
III collaboration, Y. Sakamoto, K. Nishijima +3
We have used the CANGAROO-III imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes to observe the high-frequency-peaked BL Lacertae (HBL) object PKS 2155-304 between 2006 July 28 (MJD 53944) a…
CANGAROO-III Search for Gamma Rays from SN 1987A and the Surrounding Field
R. Enomoto
Optical images of SN 1987A show a triple ring structure. The inner (dust) ring has recently increased in brightness and in the number of hot spots suggesting that the supernova sho…
CANGAROO-III Observations of the supernova remnant RX J0852.04622
R. Enomoto, S. Watanabe, T. Tanimori et al
Sub-TeV gamma-ray emission from the North-West rim of the supernova remnant RX J0852.04622 was detected with the CANGAROO-II telescope and recently confirmed by the H.E.S.S. gro…
A Search for sub-TeV Gamma-rays from the Vela Pulsar Region with CANGAROO-III
R. Enomoto, K. Tsuchiya, Y. Adachi +2
We made stereoscopic observations of the Vela Pulsar region with two of the 10 m diameter CANGAROO-III imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes in January and February, 2004, in a…
Detection of Gamma-rays around 1TeV from RX J0852.0-4622 by CANGAROO-II
H. Katagiri, R. Enomoto, L. T. Ksenofontov +1
We have detected gamma-ray emission at the 6sigma level at energies greater than 500GeV from the supernova remnant RX J0852.0-4622 (G266.2-1.2) using the CANGAROO-II Imaging Atmosp…
Detection of Sub-TeV Gamma-Rays from the Galactic Center Direction by CANGAROO-II
K. Tsuchiya, R. Enomoto, L. T. Ksenofontov +3
We have detected sub-TeV gamma-ray emission from the direction of the Galactic Center (GC) using the CANGAROO-II Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope (IACT). We detected a stati…
Search for TeV gamma-rays from SN 1987A in 2001
R. Enomoto, L. T. Ksenofontov, H. Katagiri +2
We searched for TeV gamma-rays from the remnant of SN 1987A around 5400 days after the supernova. The observations were carried out in 2001, from November 16 to December 11, using…
Evidence of TeV gamma-ray emission from the nearby starburst galaxy NGC 253
C. Itoh, R. Enomoto, S. Yanagita +4
TeV gamma-rays were recently detected from the nearby normal spiral galaxy NGC 253 (Itoh et al., 2002). Observations to detect the Cherenkov light images initiated by gamma-rays fr…
Detection of diffuse TeV gamma-ray emission from the nearby starburst galaxy NGC 253
C. Itoh, R. Enomoto, S. Yanagita +2
We report the TeV gamma-ray observations of the nearby normal spiral galaxy NGC 253. At a distance of 2.5 Mpc, NGC 253 is one of the nearest starburst galaxies. This relative…
Development of an atmospheric Cherenkov imaging camera for the CANGAROO-III experiment
S. Kabuki, K. Tsuchiya, K. Okumura +10
A Cherenkov imaging camera for the CANGAROO-III experiment has been developed for observations of gamma-ray induced air-showers at energies from 10 to 10 eV. The came…
The acceleration of cosmic-ray protons in the supernova remnant RX J1713.7-3946
II Collaboration, R. Enomoto
Protons with energies up to 10^15 eV are the main component[1] of cosmic rays, but evidence for the specific locations where they could have been accelerated to these energies has…
Status of the CANGAROO-III Project
Masaki Mori
The CANGAROO-III project, a system of four 10 m telecopes dedicated for gamma-ray astrophysics, has started in 1999 and is expected to complete in 2004 in Woomera, South Australia.…
