The swept-back multipolar magnetic field of neutron stars: Application to NICER MSP J0030+0451
Anu Kundu, Constantinos Kalapotharakos, Zorawar Wadiasingh +5
NICER observations of millisecond pulsars (MSPs) suggest that non-dipolar magnetic fields are required to explain their surface X-ray hotspots. C. Kalapotharakos et al. (2021) mode…
H.E.S.S. programme searching for VHE gamma rays associated with FRBs
F. Aharonian, A. Archaryya, J. Aschersleben +127
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are highly energetic, extremely short-lived bursts of radio flashes. Despite extensive research, the exact cause of these outbursts remains speculative. Th…
The H.E.S.S. extragalactic sky survey with the first decade of observations
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali +140
The results of the first extragalactic gamma-ray survey by the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) are presented. The survey comprises 2720 hours of very high-energy gamma-r…
High-Statistics Measurement of the Cosmic-Ray Electron Spectrum with H.E.S.S
F. Aharonian, F. Ait Benkhali, J. Aschersleben +144
Owing to their rapid cooling rate and hence loss-limited propagation distance, cosmic-ray electrons and positrons (CRe) at very high energies probe local cosmic-ray accelerators an…
Spatio-spectral-temporal Modelling of Two Young Pulsar Wind Nebulae
A. Kundu, Jagdish C. Joshi, C. Venter +5
Recent observations of a few young pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) have revealed their morphologies in some detail. Given the availability of spatio-spectral-temporal data, we use our m…
