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 ~…
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…
Discovery of VHE gamma-rays from the high-frequency-peaked BL Lac object RGB J0152+017
HESS Collaboration, F. Aharonian
Aims: The BL Lac object RGB J0152+017 (z=0.080) was predicted to be a very high-energy (VHE; > 100 GeV) gamma-ray source, due to its high X-ray and radio fluxes. Our aim is to unde…
Upper Limits from HESS AGN Observations in 2005-2007
HESS Collaboration, F. Aharonian
AIMS: Very high energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) gamma-ray studies were performed for 18 active galactic nuclei (AGN) from a variety of AGN classes. METHODS: VHE observations of a sample of…
New constraints on the Mid-IR EBL from the HESS discovery of VHE gamma rays from 1ES 0229+200
HESS Collaboration, F. Aharonian
AIMS: To investigate the very high energy (VHE: >100 GeV) gamma-ray emission from the high-frequency peaked BL Lac 1ES 0229+200. METHODS: Observations of 1ES 0229+200 at energies a…
Detection of extended very-high-energy gamma-ray emission towards the young stellar cluster Westerlund 2
HESS Collaboration, F. Aharonian
Results from gamma-ray observations by the H.E.S.S. telescope array in the direction of the young stellar cluster Westerlund 2 are presented. Stereoscopic imaging of Cherenkov ligh…
