VHE gamma-rays from Westerlund 2 and implications for the inferred energetics
O. Reimer, F. Aharonian, J. Hinton +4
The H.E.S.S. collaboration recently reported the discovery of VHE gamma-ray emission coincident with the young stellar cluster Westerlund 2. This system is known to host a populati…

A Spectacular VHE Gamma-Ray Outburst from PKS 2155-304 in 2006
W. Benbow, C. Boisson, L. Costamante +10
Since 2002 the VHE (>100 GeV) gamma-ray flux of the high-frequency peaked BL Lac PKS 2155-304 has been monitored with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (HESS). An extreme gamma-r…

New limits on the density of the extragalactic background light in the optical to the far-infrared from the spectra of all known TeV blazars
Daniel Mazin, Martin Raue
Aims: We derive limits on the EBL density from the energy spectra of distant sources of very high energetic gamma-rays (VHE gamma-rays). Methods: VHE gamma-rays are attenuated by t…
