H.E.S.S. discovery of very high energy gamma-ray emission from PKS 0625-354

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, H. Abdalla, A. Abramowski +253

PKS 0625-354 (z=0.055) was observed with the four H.E.S.S. telescopes in 2012 during 5.5 hours. The source was detected above an energy threshold of 200 GeV at a significance level…

A search for new supernova remnant shells in the Galactic plane with H.E.S.S

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, H. Abdalla +263

A search for new supernova remnants (SNRs) has been conducted using TeV gamma-ray data from the H.E.S.S. Galactic plane survey. As an identification criterion, shell morphologies t…
