PKS 2005-489 at VHE: four years of monitoring with HESS and simultaneous multi-wavelength observations
(EDP Sciences, 2010)
Aims. Our aim is to study the very high energy (VHE; E>100 GeV) γ-ray emission from BL Lac objects and the evolution in time of their broad-band spectral energy distribution (SED).
Methods. VHE observations of the ...
Simultaneous multiwavelength observations of the second exceptional y-ray flare of PKS 2155-304 in July 2006
(EDP Sciences, 2009)
Aims. The X-ray-TeV connection and the evolution of the emitting particle population is studied in high-energy peaked BL Lac objects, by obtaining spectral information in both bands on sub-hour timescales.
Methods. ...
Multi-wavelength observations of H 2356-309
(EDP Sciences, 2010)
Aims. The properties of the broad-band emission from the high-frequency peaked BL Lac H 2356–309 (z = 0.165) are investigated.
Methods. Very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) observations of H 2356–309 were performed with ...
Simultaneous observations of PKS 2155-304 with HESS, FERMI, RXTE, and ATOM: spectral energy distributions and variability in a low state
(IOP Publishing, 2009)
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 for 11 days, between 2008 August 25 and ...
The 2012 flare of PG 1553+113 seen with H.E.S.S. and Fermi-LAT
(IOP Publishing, 2015)
Very high energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) γ-ray flaring activity of the high-frequency peaked BL Lac object PG 1553+113 has been detected by the H.E.S.S. telescopes. The flux of the source increased by a factor of 3 during the ...
Characterizing the γ-ray long-term variability of PKS 2155-304 with H.E.S.S. and Fermi-LAT
(EDP Sciences, 2017)
Studying the temporal variability of BL Lac objects at the highest energies provides unique insights into the extreme physical processes occurring in relativistic jets and in the vicinity of super-massive black holes. To ...
Gamma-ray blazar spectra with H.E.S.S. II mono analysis: the case of PKS 2155-304 and PG 1553+113
(EDP Sciences, 2017)
Context. The addition of a 28 m Cherenkov telescope (CT5) to the H.E.S.S. array extended the experiment’s sensitivityto lower energies. The lowest energy threshold is obtained using monoscopic analysis of data taken with ...
H.E.S.S. discovery of very high energy γ-ray emission from PKS 0625−354
(Oxford Univ Press, 2018)
PKS 0625−354 (z = 0.055) was observed with the four High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) telescopes in 2012 during 5.5 h. The source was detected above an energy threshold of 200 GeV at a significance level of 6.1σ. ...
