Acceleration of petaelectronvolt protons in the Galactic Centre

H. E. S. S. collaboration, :, A. Abramowski +229

Galactic cosmic rays reach energies of at least a few Peta-electronvolts (1 PeV = electron volts). This implies our Galaxy contains PeV accelerators (PeVatrons), bu…

Discovery of gamma-ray emission from the extragalactic pulsar wind nebula N157B with the High Energy Stereoscopic System

HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +195

We present the significant detection of the first extragalactic pulsar wind nebula (PWN) detected in gamma rays, N157B, located in the large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Pulsars with hi…

Discovery of VHE emission towards the Carina arm region with the H.E.S.S. telescope array: HESS J1018-589

HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +195

The observational coverage with HESS of the Carina region in VHE gamma-rays benefits from deep exposure (40 h) of the neighboring open cluster Westerlund 2. The observations have r…

Discovery of the source HESS J1356-645 associated with the young and energetic PSR J1357-6429

HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +195

Several newly discovered very-high-energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) gamma-ray sources in the Galaxy are thought to be associated with energetic pulsars. Among them, middle-aged (> 1E+4 yr…

A new SNR with TeV shell-type morphology: HESS J1731-347

HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +195

The recent discovery of the radio shell-type supernova remnant (SNR), G353.6-0.7, in spatial coincidence with the unidentified TeV source HESS J1731-347 has motivated further obser…

Search for Lorentz Invariance breaking with a likelihood fit of the PKS 2155-304 flare data taken on MJD 53944

HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +193

Several models of Quantum Gravity predict Lorentz Symmetry breaking at energy scales approaching the Planck scale (10^{19} GeV). With present photon data from the observations of d…
