H.E.S.S. Observations of the Binary System PSR B1259-63/LS 2883 around the 2010/2011 Periastron Passage
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, A. Abramowski +203
Aim. In this paper we present very high energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) data from the γ-ray binary system PSR B1259-63/LS 2883 taken around its periastron passage (15th of December 2010) w…
A multiwavelength view of the flaring state of PKS 2155-304 in 2006
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +208
Multiwavelength (MWL) observations of the blazar PKS 2155-304 during two weeks in July and August 2006, the period when two exceptional flares at very high energies (VHE, E>= 100 G…
On the nature of high X-ray luminosities in SDSS galaxies
F. E. Jackson, T. P. Roberts, D. M. Alexander +5
Surveys have revealed a class of object displaying both high X-ray luminosities (Lx > 10^42 erg/s), and a lack of a discernible active galactic nucleus (AGN) in the optical band. I…
Discovery of hard-spectrum γ-ray emission from the BL Lac object 1ES 0414+009
The HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +199
1ES 0414+009 (z = 0.287) is a distant high-frequency-peaked BL Lac object, and has long been considered a likely emitter of very-high energy (VHE, E>100 GeV) gamma-rays due to its…
Discovery of extended VHE γ-ray emission from the vicinity of the young massive stellar cluster Westerlund 1
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +198
Results obtained in very-high-energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) γ-ray observations performed with the H.E.S.S. telescope array are used to investigate particle acceleration processes in th…
(No) dynamical constraints on the mass of the black hole in two ULXs
T. P. Roberts, J. C. Gladstone, A. D. Goulding +4
We present the preliminary results of two Gemini campaigns to constrain the mass of the black hole in an ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) via optical spectroscopy. Pilot studies of…
Discovery of VHE gamma-rays from the BL Lac object PKS 0548-322
H. E. S. S. collaboration, :, F. Aharonian +168
PKS 0548-322 (z=0.069) is a ``high-frequency-peaked'' BL Lac object and a candidate very high energy (VHE, E>100 GeV) gamma-ray emitter, due to its high X-ray and radio flux. Obser…
VHE gamma-ray emission of PKS 2155-304: spectral and temporal variability
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +185
Observations of very high energy gamma-rays from blazars provide information about acceleration mechanisms occurring in their innermost regions. Studies of variability in these obj…
Multi-wavelength Observations of H 2356-309
HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +184
AIMS: The properties of the broad-band emission from the high-frequency peaked BL Lac H 2356-309 (z=0.165) are investigated. METHODS: Very High Energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) observatio…
First detection of VHE gamma-rays from SN 1006 by H.E.S.S
HESS Collaboration, F. Acero, F. Aharonian +175
Recent theoretical predictions of the lowest very high energy (VHE) luminosity of SN 1006 are only a factor 5 below the previously published H.E.S.S. upper limit, thus motivating f…
