A new population of very high energy gamma-ray sources in the Milky Way
F. A. Aharonian
Very high energy gamma-rays probe the long-standing mystery of the origin of cosmic rays. Produced in the interactions of accelerated particles in astrophysical objects, they can b…
Upper limits to the SN1006 multi-TeV gamma-ray flux from H.E.S.S. observations
F. Aharonian
Observations of the shell-type supernova remnant SN1006 have been carried out with the H.E.S.S. system of Cherenkov telescopes during 2003 (18.2h with two operating telescopes) and…
Very high energy gamma rays from the composite SNR G0.9+0.1
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian
Very high energy (> 100 GeV) gamma-ray emission has been detected for the first time from the composite supernova remnant G0.9+0.1 using the H.E.S.S. instrument. The source is dete…
H.E.S.S. Observations of PKS 2155-304
The H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian
The high-frequency peaked BL Lac PKS 2155-304 at redshift z=0.117 has been detected with high significance (~45 sigma) at energies greater than 160 GeV, using the H.E.S.S. stereosc…
High-energy particle acceleration in the shell of a supernova remnant
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian
A significant fraction of the energy density of the interstellar medium is in the form of high-energy charged particles (cosmic rays). The origin of these particles remains uncerta…
Very high energy gamma rays from the direction of Sagittarius A*
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian
We report the detection of a point-like source of very high energy (VHE) gamma-rays coincident within 1' of Sgr A*, obtained with the H.E.S.S. array of Cherenkov telescopes. The ga…
Calibration of cameras of the H.E.S.S. detector
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian
H.E.S.S. - the High Energy Stereoscopic System- is a new system of large atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes for GeV/TeV astronomy. Each of the four telescopes of 107 m^2 mirror area…
