The time structure of Cherenkov images generated by TeV gamma-rays and by cosmic rays

HEGRA Collaboration, M. Hess et al

The time profiles of Cherenkov images of cosmic-ray showers and of gamma-ray showers are investigated, using data gathered with the HEGRA system of imaging atmospheric Cherenkov te…

The Temporal Characteristics of the TeV Gamma-Radiation from Mkn 501 in 1997, I: Data from the Stereoscopic Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope System of HEGRA

F. Aharonian

During 1997, the BL Lac Object Mkn 501 was the brightest known object in the TeV gamma-ray sky. The emission was characterized by dramatic variations in intensity with a mean flux…

Search for gamma-ray bursts above 20 TeV with the HEGRA AIROBICC Cherenkov array

HEGRA collaboration, L. Padilla, B. Funk +34

A search for gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) above 20 TeV within the field of view (1 sr) of the HEGRA AIROBICC Cherenkov array (29N, 18W, 2200 m a.s.l.) has been performed using data take…

Measurement of the radial distribution of Cherenkov light generated by TeV gamma-ray air showers

HEGRA Collaboration, F. Aharonian et al

Using air showers induced by TeV gamma-rays from Mrk 501, the radial distribution of Cherenkov light is investigated. The shower geometry is reconstructed from the stereoscopic sho…
