Discovery of very high energy gamma-rays associated with an X-ray binary
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian
X-ray binaries are composed of a normal star in orbit around a neutron star or stellar-mass black hole. Radio and X-ray observations have led to the presumption that some X-ray bin…
A low level of extragalactic background light as revealed by gamma-rays from blazars
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian
The diffuse extragalactic background light consists of the sum of the starlight emitted by galaxies through the history of the Universe, and it could also have an important contrib…
A search for very high energy gamma-ray emission from the starburst galaxy NGC 253 with H.E.S.S
F. Aharonian et al.
We present the result of 28 hours of observations of the nearby starburst galaxy NGC 253 with the H.E.S.S. detector in 2003. We find no evidence for very high energy gamma-ray emis…
Observations of Selected AGN with H.E.S.S
F. Aharonian et al.
A sample of selected active galactic nuclei (AGN) was observed in 2003 and 2004 with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.), an array of imaging atmospheric-Cherenkov teles…
Multi-wavelength observations of PKS 2155-304 with H.E.S.S
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, Aharonian
The High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) has observed the high-frequency peaked BL Lac object PKS2155-304 in 2003 between October 19 and November 26 in Very High Energy (VHE)…
A new population of very high energy gamma-ray sources in the Milky Way
F. A. Aharonian
Very high energy gamma-rays probe the long-standing mystery of the origin of cosmic rays. Produced in the interactions of accelerated particles in astrophysical objects, they can b…
Discovery of extended VHE gamma-ray emission from the asymmetric pulsar wind nebula in MSH 15-52 with H.E.S.S
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian
The Supernova Remnant MSH 15-52 has been observed in very high energy (VHE) gamma-rays using the H.E.S.S. 4-telescope array located in Namibia. A gamma-ray signal is detected at th…
Upper limits to the SN1006 multi-TeV gamma-ray flux from H.E.S.S. observations
F. Aharonian
Observations of the shell-type supernova remnant SN1006 have been carried out with the H.E.S.S. system of Cherenkov telescopes during 2003 (18.2h with two operating telescopes) and…
Spallation dominated propagation of Heavy Cosmic Rays and the Local Interstellar Medium (LISM)
C. Combet, D. Maurin, J. Donnelly +2
Measurements of ultra heavy nuclei at GeV/n energies in the galactic cosmic radiation address the question of the sources (nucleosynthetic s- and r-processes). As such, the determi…
Search for TeV emission from the region around PSR B1706-44 with the H.E.S.S. experiment
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian
The region around PSR B1706-44 has been observed with the H.E.S.S. imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes in 2003. No evidence for gamma-ray emission in the TeV range was found a…
Very high energy gamma rays from the composite SNR G0.9+0.1
H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. Aharonian
Very high energy (> 100 GeV) gamma-ray emission has been detected for the first time from the composite supernova remnant G0.9+0.1 using the H.E.S.S. instrument. The source is dete…
