Detailed VHE Studies of the Pulsar Wind Nebula HESS J1825-137

A. M. W. Mitchell, C. Mariaud, P. Eger +5

The pulsar wind nebula (PWN) HESS~J1825-137, known to exhibit strong energy dependent morphology, was discovered by HESS in 2005. Powered by the pulsar PSR~B1823-13, the TeV gamma-…

Calibration of the Cherenkov Telescope Array using Cosmic Ray Electrons

R. D. Parsons, J. A. Hinton, H. Schoorlemmer

Cosmic ray electrons represent a background for gamma-ray observations with Cherenkov telescopes, initiating air-showers which are difficult to distinguish from photon-initiated sh…

Discovery of a variable X-ray counterpart to HESS J1832-093: A new gamma-ray binary?

P. Eger, H. Laffon, P. Bordas +3

The TeV gamma-ray point source HESSJ1832-093 remains unidentified despite extensive multi-wavelength studies. The gamma-ray emission could originate in a very compact pulsar wind n…
