Looking for infrared counterparts of Fermi/LAT blazar candidates

Julien Lefaucheur, Catherine Boisson, Paolo Goldoni +1

The Fermi/LAT telescope is an efficient blazar-detector in the MeV/GeV range. More than 1100 (900) blazars detected above 100 MeV (10 GeV) are clearly associated to BL Lacertae or…

Target of Opportunity Observations of Blazars with H.E.S.S

F. Schüssler, M. Seglar-Arroyo, M. Arrieta +13

The very-high-energy (VHE, E>100 GeV) extragalactic sky is dominated by blazars, a class of active galactic nuclei which show rapid variability at all wavelengths. Target of Opport…

Characterising the VHE diffuse emission in the central 200 parsecs of our Galaxy with H.E.S.S

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, H. Abdalla +256

The diffuse very high-energy (VHE, > 100 GeV) gamma-ray emission observed in the central 200 pc of the Milky Way by H.E.S.S. was found to follow the dense matter distribution in th…

Shocks in relativistic transverse stratified jets, a new paradigm for radio-loud AGN

O. Hervet, Z. Meliani, A. Zech +4

The transverse stratification of active galactic nuclei (AGN) jets is suggested by observations and theoretical arguments, as a consequence of intrinsic properties of the central e…

Systematic search for very-high-energy gamma-ray emission from bow shocks of runaway stars

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, H. Abdalla +260

Runaway stars form bow shocks by ploughing through the interstellar medium at supersonic speeds and are promising sources of non-thermal emission of photons. One of these objects h…
