Combined dark matter searches towards dwarf spheroidal galaxies with Fermi-LAT, HAWC, H.E.S.S., MAGIC, and VERITAS
Celine Armand, Eric Charles, Mattia di Mauro +13
Cosmological and astrophysical observations suggest that 85\% of the total matter of the Universe is made of Dark Matter (DM). However, its nature remains one of the most challengi…
Search for dark matter annihilation signals from the Galactic Center with the H.E.S.S. Inner Galaxy Survey
A. Montanari, E. Moulin, D. Malyshev
The presence of dark matter (DM) is suggested by a wealth of astrophysical and cosmological measurements. However, its underlying nature is yet unknown. Among the most promising ca…
The young massive stellar cluster Westerlund 1 in rays as seen with H.E.S.S
