Constraints on the emission geometries and spin evolution of gamma-ray millisecond pulsars
(IOP Publishing, 2014)Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are a growing class of gamma-ray emitters. Pulsed gamma-ray signals have been detected from more than 40 MSPs with the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). The wider radio beams and more compact ... -
Discovery of extended VHE Y-ray emission from the vicinity of the young massive stellar cluster Westerlund 1
(EDP Sciences, 2012)Aims. Results obtained in very-high-energy (VHE; E≥100GeV) γ-ray observations performed with the H.E.S.S. telescope array are used to investigate particle acceleration processes in the vicinity of the young massive stellar ... -
Discovery of variable VHE γ-ray emission from the binary system 1FGL J1018.6-5856
(EDP Sciences, 2015)Re-observations with the HESS telescope array of the very high-energy (VHE) source HESS J1018–589 A that is coincident with the Fermi-LAT γ-ray binary 1FGL J1018.6–5856 have resulted in a source detection significance of ... -
Orbitally-modulated X-ray and Gamma-ray Emission from Millisecond Pulsar Binaries
(North-West University (South Africa), 2020)In the 11 years since its launch, the Fermi Large Area Telescope has yielded a large number of new detections. Among these new detections are about 30 black widow and redback systems. These sources are compact binaries in ... -
Search for TeV Gamma-ray emission from GRB 100621A, an extremely bright GRB in X-rays, with H.E.S.S.
(EDP Sciences, 2014)The long gamma-ray burst (GRB) 100621A, at the time the brightest X-ray transient ever detected by Swift-XRT in the 0:3–10 keV range, has been observed with the H.E.S.S. imaging air Cherenkov telescope array, sensitive ...
