Pinpointing the base of the AGN jets through general relativistic X-ray reverberation studies

D. Emmanoulopoulos

Many theoretical models of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) predict that the X-ray corona, lying above the black hole, constitutes the base of the X-ray jet. Thus, by studying the exac…

Swift monitoring of NGC 5548: X-ray reprocessing and short term UV/optical variability

I. M. McHardy, D. T. Cameron, T. Dwelly +7

Lags measured from correlated X-ray/UV/optical monitoring of AGN allow us to determine whether UV/optical variability is driven by reprocessing of X-rays or X-ray variability is dr…

Detection of Gamma Rays From a Starburst Galaxy

The HESS Collaboration, F. Acero

Starburst galaxies exhibit in their central regions a highly increased rate of supernovae, the remnants of which are thought to accelerate energetic cosmic rays up to energies of ~…

Simultaneous observations of PKS 2155-304 with H.E.S.S., Fermi, RXTE and ATOM: spectral energy distributions and variability in a low state

H. E. S. S., Fermi-LAT collaborations

We report on the first simultaneous observations that cover the optical, X-ray, and high energy gamma-ray bands of the BL Lac object PKS 2155-304. The gamma-ray bands were observed…

H.E.S.S. observations of gamma-ray bursts in 2003-2007

F. Aharonian

Very-high-energy (VHE; >~100 GeV) gamma-rays are expected from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) in some scenarios. Exploring this photon energy regime is necessary for understanding the ene…

Exploring a SNR/Molecular Cloud Association Within HESS J1745-303

HESS Collaboration, F. Aharonian

HESS J1745-303 is an extended, unidentified VHE (very high energy) gamma-ray source discovered using HESS in the Galactic Plane Survey. Since no obvious counterpart has previously…
