HESS J1741-302: a hidden accelerator in the Galactic plane
The H.E.S.S. collaboration has discovered a new very high energy (VHE, E $>$ 0.1 TeV) $\gamma$-ray source, HESS J1741-302, located in the Galactic plane. Despite several attempts to constrain its nature, no plausible counterpart…
Constraints on particle acceleration in SS433/W50 from MAGIC and H.E.S.S. observations
The large jet kinetic power and non-thermal processes occurring in the microquasar SS 433 make this source a good candidate for a very high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emitter. Gamma-ray fluxes have been predicted for both…
Searches for gamma-ray lines and ‘pure WIMP’ spectra from Dark Matter annihilations in dwarf galaxies with H.E.S.S.
Dwarf spheroidal galaxies are among the most promising targets for detecting signals of Dark Matter (DM) annihilations. The H.E.S.S. experiment has observed five of these systems for a total of about 130 hours. The…
H.E.S.S. discovery of very high gamma-ray emission from PKS 0625-354
PKS 0625-354 (z=0.055) was observed with the four H.E.S.S. telescopes in 2012 during 5.5 hours. The source was detected above an energy threshold of 200 GeV at a significance level of 6.1$\sigma$. No significant…
The gamma-ray spectrum of the core of Centaurus A as observed with H.E.S.S. and Fermi-LAT
Centaurus A (Cen A) is the nearest radio galaxy discovered as a very-high-energy (VHE; 100 GeV-100 TeV) $\gamma$-ray source by the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.). It is a faint VHE $\gamma$-ray emitter, though…
Detection of variable VHE gamma-ray emission from the extra-galactic gamma-ray binary LMC P3
Context. Recently, the high-energy (HE, 0.1-100 GeV) $\gamma$-ray emission from the object LMC P3 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) has been discovered to be modulated with a 10.3-day period, making it the first…
First Ground-based Measurement of Sub-20 GeV to 100 GeV -rays from the Vela Pulsar with H.E.S.S. II
We report on the measurement and investigation of pulsed high-energy $\gamma$-ray emission from the Vela pulsar, PSR B0833$-$45, based on 40.3 hours of observations with the largest telescope of H.E.S.S., CT5, in monoscopic mode,…
The starburst galaxy NGC 253 revisited by H.E.S.S. and Fermi-LAT
(Abridged) Context. NGC 253 is one of only two starburst galaxies found to emit $\gamma$-rays from hundreds of MeV to multi-TeV energies. Accurate measurements of the very-high-energy (VHE) (E $>$ 100 GeV) and high-energy…
Search for gamma-ray line signals from dark matter annihilations in the inner Galactic halo from ten years of observations with H.E.S.S
Spectral lines are among the most powerful signatures for dark matter (DM) annihilation searches in very-high-energy $\gamma$-rays. The central region of the Milky Way halo is one of the most promising targets given its…
