H.E.S.S. observations of the supernova remnant RX J0852.0-4622: shell-type morphology and spectrum of a widely extended VHE gamma-ray source
HESS Collaboration, F. A. Aharonian
The shell-type supernova remnant RX J0852.0-4622 was observed with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) of Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes between December 2004 and May…
Fast variability of TeV gamma-rays from the radio galaxy M 87
HESS Collaboration, F. A. Aharonian
The detection of fast variations of the TeV (10^12 eV) gamma-ray flux, on time-scales of days, from the nearby radio galaxy M 87 is reported. These variations are ~10 times faster…
Primary particle acceleration above 100 TeV in the shell-type Supernova Remnant RX J1713.7-3946 with deep H.E.S.S. observations
The HESS Collaboration, F. Aharonian
We present deep H.E.S.S. observations of the supernova remnant (SNR) RX J1713.7-3946. Combining data of three years - from 2003 to 2005 - we obtain significantly increased statisti…
Exploring Broadband GRB Behavior During gamma-ray Emission
S. A. Yost, H. F. Swan, E. S. Rykoff +44
The robotic ROTSE-III telescope network detected prompt optical emission contemporaneous with the gamma-ray emission of Swift events GRB051109A and GRB051111. Both datasets have co…
H.E.S.S. observations of the Galactic Center region and their possible dark matter interpretation
H. E. S. S. collaboration, :, F. A. Aharonian
The detection of gamma-rays from the source HESS J1745-290 in the Galactic Center (GC) region with the H.E.S.S. array of Cherenkov telescopes in 2004 is presented. After subtractio…
INTEGRAL observations of TeV plerions
A. I. D. Hoffmann, D. Horns, A. Santangelo
Amongst the sources seen in very high gamma-rays several are associated with Pulsar Wind Nebulae (``TeV plerions''). The study of hard X-ray/soft gamma-ray emission is providing an…
Nucleonic gamma-ray production in Pulsar Wind Nebulae
D. Horns, F. Aharonian, A. I. D. Hoffmann +1
Observations of the inner radian of the Galactic disk at very high energy (VHE) gamma-rays have revealed at least 16 new sources. Besides shell type super-nova remnants, pulsar win…
3.9 day orbital modulation in the TeV gamma-ray flux and spectrum from the X-ray binary LS 5039
The H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. A. Aharonian
New observations of LS 5039, a High Mass X-ray Binary comprising a massive star and compact object, were carried out with the High Energy Stereoscopic System of Cherenkov Telescope…
Discovery of the two wings of the Kookaburra complex in VHE gamma -rays with H.E.S.S
The H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, F. A. Aharonian
Aims. Search for Very High Energy gamma-ray emission in the Kookaburra complex through observations with the H.E.S.S. array. Methods. Stereoscopic imaging of Cherenkov light emissi…
Discovery of Very High Energy gamma - ray emission from the extreme BL Lac object H2356-309 with H.E.S.S
S. Pita, W. Benbow, L. Costamante +5
The understanding of acceleration mechanisms in active galactic nuclei (AGN) jets and the measurement of the extragalactic-background-light (EBL) density are closely linked and req…
The Anomalous Early Afterglow of GRB 050801
E. S. Rykoff, V. Mangano, S. A. Yost +24
The ROTSE-IIIc telescope at the H.E.S.S. site, Namibia, obtained the earliest detection of optical emission from a Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB), beginning only 21.8 s from the onset of Sw…
