Revisiting the Westerlund 2 Field with the H.E.S.S. Telescope Array

The HESS Collaboration, A. Abramowski, F. Acero +194

Aims. Previous observations with the H.E.S.S. telescope array revealed the existence of extended very-high-energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) γ-ray emission, HESS J1023-575, coincident with t…

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…

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…
